Thanks! I failed the test. Since I am on a DHCP IP address, I forward out
using Comcast.net. They don't have spf records!
Once I make a list of the outbound mail servers I can fix my spf record and
re-test.

there were many calls for such a validation system
at the Redmond ESPC meeting.
We've discussed the requirements for such a robot in the
past. Nobody has written one yet.
The more you donate, the sooner it will get written. The
average donation, btw, is in the $2 range. So it will take
a lot of donations at that rate to make it happen.
bah! please dont pull that stuff, as it really hurts the "community"
spirit IMHO.
I believe there is one out there, i have in my sent items the following
address:
test(_at_)yahoo(_dot_)com(_dot_)spfchk(_dot_)senderpays(_dot_)com
give a whirl, here is what you get back:
Chris's SPF email checker v1.0
Usage instructions. (your results are below)
1. Compose an email from the normal place you want to send an email
from, to any address you'd normally want to write to, but:
2. Add '.spfchk.SenderPays.com' on the end of the recipient email
address (eg: fred(_at_)example(_dot_)com becomes
fred(_at_)example(_dot_)com(_dot_)spfchk(_dot_)SenderPays(_dot_)com
3. Send it
4. Wait for the test results to come back to whatever email address you
sent from
Optional - you can use .spfchk111.SenderPays.com, or .spfchk000.
SenderPays.com etc instead. The meanings of the 1's or 0's is this:-
First place - allow SPF trusted checks (if 1 - disallow if 0 - default
1)
Second place - allow SPF guessing (if 1 - disable if 0 - default 0)
Third place - Check callerID as well (if 1 - disable if 0 - default 1)
Note: this test will return stuff to you, including the actual SPF
command and its output, which SpamAssassin thinks is chickenpox and
scores it badly... so if you don't see your test results within a few
seconds, check your spam folders...
I think that might be what you want.
