That is not practical. Atleast in India, Banks use third party servers to send their mailers often. And the ips have PTR's & HELO's which dont match the banks', because these dont belong to the bank I do something like this. ((! SPF_PASS ) && ( ENV_FROM_GOOD_BANKS || HEADER_FROM_GOOD_BANKS) ) then give a score 3.0 Of course the GOOD_BANKS are a list of bank which have SPF records. Thanks Ram
