By "tight match" I mean the domain specifies ?all or -all
By "loose match" I mean the domain specifies +all
I don't think we should do anything drastic like have 'pass' and
'pass-loose', but maybe there could be a well-defined string in the
comment field denoting this "loose match" situation so that later
filters may be able to adjust spam scoring higher for loose matches.
I know I can just hack my server implementation myself to do this (or
to find out if they do it already), but I think it may be useful to
others as well, so it may be nice to have this somewhat standardized,
or at least a "suggested practice" for implementors.
What say you?
I relate to the part that wants to see more information in the comment
part of the Received-SPF header. In particular, maybe having the
mechanism that matched explicitly as part of the comment field would be
useful. You could then work out whether the message passed due to the
'all' or some other mechanism.
