Hi,

since several weeks I see more and more SPF-Errors for mails coming from
O365. It seems that when mails gets relayed, they use outbound mail
servers that are not valid for sending from the (relaying, not origin)
mail address.

My O365 account where I have relaying active is an academic account.

The last failure comes from IP 40.95.92.45 and is trying to deliver
mails from klaus_eth...@stud.phzh.ch (my academic account).

   > spfquery -ip 40.95.92.45 -sender klaus_eth...@stud.phzh.ch
   fail
   Please see 
http://www.openspf.org/Why?id=klaus_ethgen%40stud.phzh.ch&ip=40.95.92.45&receiver=spfquery
 : Reason: mechanism
   spfquery: domain of stud.phzh.ch does not designate 40.95.92.45 as permitted 
sender
   Received-SPF: fail (spfquery: domain of stud.phzh.ch does not designate 
40.95.92.45 as permitted sender) client-ip=40.95.92.45; 
envelope-from=klaus_eth...@stud.phzh.ch;

It is pretty impudent from microsoft to write in the deliver failure:
   It's likely that only the recipient's email admin can fix the
   problem. Unfortunately, it's unlikely Office 365 Support will be able
   to help with these kinds of externally reported errors.

No, it IS solely the fault of Microsoft not be able to manage SMTP
correctly.

Any ways to get them to correct their SMTP setup?

Regards
   Klaus

Ps. Could it be, that http://www.openspf.org/Why is broken? I get
    connection refused.
