I have recently joined this list and apologise in advance for an
excessively basic question. I'd hoped that spf might offer a solution
for my problem but I think now that the discussion is way above my head.
However, if any experts here can suggest what is happening I should be
most grateful. The problem is as follows.
In the last few weeks I have found that I seem to be sending out
increasing amounts of spam, much of which is rejected. A few examples
are attached below. If it makes any difference, I am using Debian
testing, with mutt and exim4, and I have a dialup connection vie
smarthost.
