Hello,
I'm trying to set up SPF for our website, http://www.wetenschapsforum.nl
First the good news: I think I've succeeded in adding the correct TXT
header (v=spf1 a mx ?all)
I'm quite new to all this, so to prevent mistakes I have set it to
?all instead of ~all. Besides: I'm not aware of anybody sending spam
on our behalf.
When I send an email from my account at wetenschapsforum to my gmail
account I find this in the headers:
(I've replace my real address with ****)
Received-SPF: pass (google.com: domain of ****@wetenschapsforum.nl
designates 85.17.220.92 as permitted sender) client-ip=85.17.220.92;
Authentication-Results: mx.google.com; spf=pass (google.com: domain of
****@wetenschapsforum.nl designates 85.17.220.92 as permitted sender)
smtp.mail=****@wetenschapsforum.nl
So looks good, right?
Now for the bad news:
We're running Invision Power Board. One of the reasons I'm looking
into SPF is to prevent our (automated) mails to get in spamboxes. I'm
referring to notifications like the board is sending in case of a new
new personale message etc.
Now when I get a message from the board the header looks like this:
(I've replaced the sending address with --- this time).
Received-SPF: softfail (google.com: best guess record for domain of
transitioning ---@wetenschapsforum.nl does not designate <unknown> as
permitted sender)
I don't have a clue why it sais "<unknown>".
I do have full (shell) access to our server, so I can change settings
(if you tell me which ones ;)).
Any suggestions?
Regards,
Miels
