I'm not sure if this is the right place for this or not, but here I go.... I am a representative of the Sender Policy Framework (SPF) project (http://www.openspf.org/). Feisty represents a significant milestone for our project. There are two RFC 4408 compliant SPF implementations (including code to integrate with Postfix) in Feisty. This is a first for us. It was described briefly in UWN #30:
"Feisty includes a number of changes to provide SPF (Sender Policy Framework) checking with Postfix. SPF is the most deployed e-mail domain forgery protection technology today and was codified by the IETF in RFC 4408. See http://www.openspf.org/ for more information. Feisty will be the first Linux distribution to include everything needed to do RFC 4408 compliant SPF checking. The Python SPF library has been updated to the latest release (python-spf 2.0.3). A companion Postfix policy server (python-policyd-spf) is also included for a pure Python approach. There is also a new Perl SPF library (libmail-spf-perl) with a companion Postfix policy server (postfix-policyd-spf-perl). " We would be interested in distributing news of the Feisty release through our mailing and announcement lists (several thousand subscribers among the various sources) if it contained some mention of the SPF improvements. Additionally, I'd make mention of how easy this was to do because of the openness of the Ubuntu community to outside developers (this is true - I did all of the packaging work).
