Hi,

First of all, This is NOT an OpenBSD question.

But OpenBSD always is based on correctness. So I need a correct answer for
this that's why I came to your mailing list.

I think THIS is the right place to ask this since you guys are Network
gurus.

Pls DO NOT  discard this mail because this is very  USEFUL.


Let's go in to below examples and pls answer my questions.


example.com.  IN    TXT  "v=spf1 a:host1.example.com -all"

the above says only server that is allowed to send mail using the
example.com domain. that is host1.example.com


How can I add Multiple hosts to send using the example.com domain. ( let's
say host1.example.com , host2.example.com and host3.example.com )


is the below record OK?

example.com.  IN    TXT  "v=spf1 a:host1.example.com a:host2.example.com a:
host3.example.com -all"


or what about this?

if host1.example.com =1.2.3.4 , host2.example.com = 1.2.3.5 and
host3.example.com = 1.2.3.6

example.com.  IN    TXT  "v=spf1 ipv4:1.2.3.4 ipv4:1.2.3.5 ipvr:1.2.3.6
-all"

is the ABOVE line is OK ?



and also

can you explain these as well.


example.com.    IN    TXT    "v=spf1 mx -all"

the above says that Allow domain's MXes to send mail using the example.com
domain, prohibit all others.


what does the below record mean?

example.com.    IN    TXT    "v=spf1 mx a -all"


Does it say Allow domain's MXes and domain's A records  to send mails using
example.com domain, prohibit all others.


Waiting your INPUTS.
