Heho,

The rspamd default is 30. I'd say it works better that way in practice, because 
people do make mistakes and vendors do modify the records customers include.

Did you encounter such issues in practice and/or were you involved in the 
discussion forming that default? If so, it would be nice to get some more 
perspective on that.

With best regards,
Tobias

We run into the over 30 all the time, but usually it just happens via laziness, or not understanding how DNS queries work, or not knowing the RFC.. When I say all the time, the volume is small by percentage, but often really big companies who's engineers should know better.

But someone should help these people, and the only way to draw attention to the fact they are doing it wrong, is to do things like flagging messages from them as 'spammy' or rejections..

As a matter of fact, in spite of all the free domain checkers and mail testing tools out there, our team is rolling out a domain health checker to make it more obvious.

If you can 'reject' with a clear message that their SPF record does not conform to RFC, then they might understand why the rest of their email sometimes has problems..

IMHO..

We can't just keep ignoring Best Practices and RFC's, or what is the use?
