Hi, |
| 2 |
|
| 3 |
I'd like to remind all developers that there is an LDAP field to allow |
| 4 |
you to customize SPF entries for how you send email. |
| 5 |
|
| 6 |
If, for example, you wanted to strictly try to block people forging mail |
| 7 |
as you, and you send ONLY via your own mailservers, you can set SPF to |
| 8 |
'-all'. |
| 9 |
|
| 10 |
If, you wanted to explicitly allow your mail to come from Google's mail |
| 11 |
servers, then set SPF to 'include:_spf.google.com' (optionally with -all |
| 12 |
or ~all on the end). |
| 13 |
|
| 14 |
In both cases, you set it via perl_ldap (or other LDAP tools of your |
| 15 |
preference): |
| 16 |
|
| 17 |
Example usage (with Google example, strictly): |
| 18 |
---------------------------------------------- |
| 19 |
(this sets lavajoe's gentooSPF record). |
| 20 |
|
| 21 |
perl_ldap -b user \ |
| 22 |
-M gentooSPF 'include:_spf.google.com -all' \ |
| 23 |
lavajoe |
| 24 |
|
| 25 |
|
| 26 |
P.S. |
| 27 |
The LDAP->DNS sync is still run on a manual trigger by myself, so please |
| 28 |
feel free to ping me in #gentoo-infra or via email for actioning. |
