Guillermo, The default setting for SPF in the toaster (and most SPF programs that I've noticed) is a level "3", meaning that it will only actually block mail if the domain they are sending from is set to "-all" (full fail). In which case, they should contact their mail ISP to adjust their SPF setting for their domain so their email server can send to your server. If they do NOT have an spf, level 3 will not block their mail. That said, they probably DO have an spf, and should probably adhere to it. ;)
(some of this is repeat from below) The file that controls the level of spf behavior for your server is here: /var/qmail/control/spfbehavior However, I'm very sure that it is not recommended to change this. If anything, don't go higher than 3, or lower than 2. Here's more info on the different settings you can use. http://www.saout.de/misc/spf/ Jared -----Original Message----- From: Guillermo Villasana [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, July 20, 2006 1:30 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [qmailtoaster] Help with SPF problem Sorry... I should have eliminated the first part, but what I want to do is to disable the SPF validation, as a lot of my clients have been having problems recieving from other emails. Most of them because they don't have the SPF. ( I have started adding the spf to all my domains) but most of the ppl that are sending to my server don't have any idea/possibility to add the SPF to their DNSs (as they don't manage them and don't understand as they are not technical ppl) and blame us that we have a huge problem as we are rejecting the email (because their servers don't say that they are the problem) So is there a way to disable the SPF validation?
