Re: extending the macro syntax

2003-11-03 18:56:27
I have a patch file at http://pond.gladstonefamily.net/Query.pf that updates 1.7pre1 to a version that handles a unified macro syntax.

I've also fixed the spftest(_at_)gladstonefamily(_dot_)net responder to check to see if your existing SPF record works (in the sense of saying 'allow'). If it does, then it tells you so. It also now returns macro syntax (in the one case of 'ptr:%{d2}').

I managed to lose the database of addresses, helo, etc that I had built up. I'm building it up again.

That sounds good.  Is there anybody on this list who is experienced in
Perl and would like to help put these kinds of changes into the code?
We can afford a token payment of maybe $20/hr capped, mail me off-list
to discuss.
