Like you said, if he wants to send mail through the FreeBSD server, using his prime.gushi.org domain, he should add ip4:69.147.83.53 to his SPF records for that domain (or do some SRS forward rewriting). But what's mx2.freebsd.org not being listed as an MX of freebsd.org got to do with SPF?? There's no requirement, whatsoever, for mx2.freebsd.org to be an official FreeBSD MX record. Who cares? FreeBSD includes ip4:69.147.83.53 in its SPF records (which is mx2.freebsd.org). That's all SPF needs to know. - Mark ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

SPF doesn't care whether email is sent from an MX server. mx2.freebsd.org is listed in the SPF record, but that doesn't really matter much unless they implement the Sender Rewriting Scheme in their forwarder. SRS should eliminate the rejection problem. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
