Hi All:
I am trying to understand all the little ins and outs about SPF.
I have created an SPF record with some on line tools and have even posted it
on our domain, but now I want to start implementing in through our Server.
I am a bit confused about some things regarding SPF so please bear with me.
I get a lot of garbage mail that is using addresses on our mail
server as the “Mail From” address. I know that we have not sent these
messages and I believe that SPF will help to reduce the amount of stuff
coming to us that says it was sent by us.. So my question is if I enable SPF
checking will it validate whether the mail came from us and reject and how
does this impact mail sent to me by others who don’t publish an SPF record?
Would it be better during the switch to us a either or situation ..
Pass/Fail; or would a Soft Fail be the best solution?
Any advice would be greatly appreciated on this topic. Thanks
in advance.
