[Slackbuilds-users] spf breaks submission form email validation

[David Miller]

Hi,

my mailserver rejects whatever valid email check the submission form does.

It appears that the test message comes FROM the same adress that it is TO. Since I am using spf, the mail is rejected because I publish an spf record that says only my machines may send mail from my domain.

here's what I get in the log
Received-SPF: fail (pretender.frop .net: SPF record at frop.net does not designate 208.67.159.178 as permitted sender)

It seems like the valid email checker should use a from address other than the destination address.

I was able to submit my slackbuild under another address.

Thanks.
