[spf-discuss] SPF blocking e-mails coming from an E-card service server

2007-04-06 11:10:26
Hello.

I have an E-card customer of our site who has sent an e-mail to someone who's 
e-mail server is using SPF.
They detected that the sender of the e-mail was not allowed to send an e-mail 
from another server (like ours). They request this user to send e-mails only 
from one of its allowed servers.

This is problematic for our E-card service, as we force the sender's e-mail 
address to be coming from the one the user is typing. We need to do this, as it 
allows the recipient to directly answer to the sender, and also because if 
there is any e-mail problem, the problem will directly be sent to the sender 
and not our server, else the customer would never know of the problem and 
wrongly think that the e-mail was sent properly.

Can some one tell me how E-cards developpers should act regarding that matter?
We currently never had any forgery of a spammer who would use our server, and 
they are limited to only 10 E-cards per day and per IP address, so it is quite 
clean and already very restrictive, and we also check first the sender's IP for 
spamlists before accepting the e-mail, this is probably why we didn't have any 
problem at all with hackers willing to use our service.

Thanks in advance for any advice.
