Testing my SPF implementation against Wayne's test suite from
http://www.midwestcs.com/spf/tests/tests_v2.1/test.txt, I came across the SPF policy record in
99.spf1-test.mailzone.com
which is
v=spf1 -all exp=99txt.spf1-test.mailzone.com moo
The explanation TXT expands to
"u=%{u} s=%{s} d=%{d} t=%{t} h=%{h} i=%{i} %% U=%{U} S=%{S} D=%{D} T=%{T} H=%{H} I=%{I} %% moo"
The latest draft specification doesn't document the "u" macro, nor does it indicate what to do when
faced with a macro that is not documented - do you report (unknown) error for the policy (seems a little
harsh), do you ignore the macro completely, or should it be replaced with some simple string, e.g.
"(unknown)"?
Any help appreciated,
Thanks,
Gary Levell
