Re: Opening Debate on SPF vs. SenderKeys

2004-08-20 21:48:48

SPF "-all" attempts to say semantically that "email not from a certain IP is 
forgery"
where from a senders perspective "any email I send is not a forgery".

Another way of saying that SPF "-all" is a gross oversimplication of sender 
identity.  It attempts to say that senders are IP addresses of mail relays, 
when in fact senders are human beings.  The closer you can get to signing 
actions the humans do to send, the closer you are not making a false assumption.
