Looks like the problem is even worse. Gentoo mailing lists are not checking |
| 14 |
SPF records. This is Gentoo specific. Send it to a Gmail or other properly |
| 15 |
setup SMTP server and/or proxies and you should get a rejection per SPF. |

Not only can gentoo.org email addresses be spoofed on Gentoo mailing lists, |
| 18 |
but so can individuals. Good thing I GPG sign my emails. But this IMHO is |
| 19 |
pretty embarrassing for an organization such as Gentoo. |
