Myway.com seem to publish a proper SPF record. The default score for

lowering the SPF_PASS score?
Do it just for myway. Something like (off the top of my head, syntax
is probably off):
header __MYWAY Received =~ /myway\.com/
meta MYWAY_TWEAK __MYWAY && SPF_PASS
score MYWAY_TWEAK -2.0
Hmm! This looks interesting. I will try this out.
Mind you I am still not sure that I want to trust all Myway users in
this way :-)
I'm also not at all sure this is any different in effect from
"whitelist_from_spf [EMAIL PROTECTED]" - but it *will* let you finely tune
just *how much* you trust myway.com emails...
Exactly what I was thinking. whitelist_from_spf gives a massive -100.0,
wheras with this meta rule you can give a small negative score to
counter act some of the RFC stuff, without countering other spammy
scores too much.
