Re: SPF: Not just a clever idea

I pretty much agree with Jim's comments.

I would personally hate for Jim to lose faith in SPF, since it 
would probably prevent development of the a potentially useful 
technology into my MTA. Though if Jim loses faith in SPF for 
the reasons posted, I would also probably have no further 
interest in it either.

Only one comment to add to

Jim Hill wrote:> 
My concerns are to prevent my domain being abused in the reverse
path of junk mail and to assist other Internet hosts in
preventing their domains being abused in similar fashion. That's
the only reason I'm here. If spf loses that primary focus, as
appears to be the case, there's no point in sticking around.

My second biggest problem, also reverse path, and actually 
larger bandwidth wise, is virus/worm forgery of my domain, and 
particularly some published email addresses (postmaster is a 
real problem).

Karl Prince
