Hey, guys, I just realized I'm seeing Eric Allman tomorrow night,
so it would be really useful if someone could test the Milter
against the latest version of Mail::SPF::Query available at

  http://spf.pobox.com/Mail-SPF-Query-1.7pre3.tar.gz

The milter is at

  http://spf.pobox.com/sendmail-milter-spf-1.0.pl

The API should be compatible but I don't want any surprises.

If you can figure out a way to prepend headers, it would be really
interesting to see Received-SPF and X-SPF-Guess headers.  I've been
putting those headers in my messages and it's a lot of fun.  X-SPF-Guess
is a fantastic false-positive detector.  The only time it's wrong, the
domain is already in a bunch of blacklists anyway:

    Received-SPF: unknown: domain of 
b(_dot_)platinummember(_dot_)0-26331aa-3170(_dot_)wywy(_dot_)com(_dot_)-yyyyy(_at_)13(_dot_)pn04(_dot_)com
 does not designate permitted senders
    X-SPF-Guess: pass: best guess: seems reasonable for 
b(_dot_)platinummember(_dot_)0-26331aa-3170(_dot_)wywy(_dot_)com(_dot_)-yyyyy(_at_)13(_dot_)pn04(_dot_)com
 to mail through 69.6.27.62
    X-Pobox-Antispam: dnsbl/blackholes.easynet.nl returned DENY: for 
69.6.27.62(13.opn03.com)
    X-Pobox-Antispam: dnsbl/sbl.spamhaus.org returned DENY: for 
69.6.27.62(13.opn03.com)
    X-Pobox-Antispam: rhsbl/bulk.rhs.mailpolice.com returned DENY: found 
13.pn04.com
    X-Pobox-Antispam: rhsbl/spamdomains.blackholes.easynet.nl returned DENY: 
found 13.pn04.com

The core mechanisms for SPF have stabilized: A MX PTR.

The new macro magic introduced by Philip Gladstone is moving like a
whirlwind through the other mechanisms, and when things die down, we
can expect that

  rhs
  ptrhs
  localpart
  pi

will be replaced by

  exists
  exec

I only expect very unusual domains to use those mechanisms anyway so
most people should feel free to keep publishing records using a, mx, and
ptr.
