[spf-discuss] the wizard and frequently seen problems

2006-05-19 06:22:09
When dealing with users and their problems, I find that many
problems are based on:

- not knowing DNS
- not knowing difference between domain and zone
- not knowing SPF
- incorrect interpretation of that "MX servers" question in the wizard

and, last but not least: people tend to enable options until it
somehow magically works (enable "ptr", "mx", and so on).

I wrote the following text as a guideline for new users when they
encounter the wizard for the first time.  Perhaps we can massage
this document into something useful, ultimately it should then be
included in the wizard html page (as a link).

Don't be shy.  There will be weird sentences in the text, pretending
to be english text but using dutch style.  There will be typos, there
may even be ommisions or plain lies.  Tell me.

If you consider your reply useful for the list, reply here.  Else send
me a private response (keep the subject intact!) and I will summarize
responses from time to time.

The text is available here:
