Public bug reported: Binary package hint: libmail-spf-query-perl
Not all DNS servers support the new SPF RR type and reply unsupported or SERVFAIL to queries for it. libmail-spf-query-perl will cause mail to be 451 rejected in postfix-policyd-spf-perl. Noted here that some email servers will incorrectly reject mail if unsupported: http://www.simpledns.com/newsitem.aspx?id=2171 Example rejection: Nov 9 15:24:29 hyolee postfix/policy-spf[15752]: : Policy action=DEFER_IF_PERMIT SPF-Result=smtp03.hkpc.org: 'SERVFAIL' error on DNS 'SPF' lookup of 'smtp03.hkpc.org' A possible workaround is editing /usr/share/perl5/Mail/SPF/Server.pm, line 440 to treat unsupported operation as not found: $packet->header->rcode =~ /^(NOERROR|NXDOMAIN|SERVFAIL)$/ ** Affects: libmail-spf-query-perl (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- SPF rejects mail on unsupported SPF RR type https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/161133 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
