Can you release your implementation of this “email tester”?

Hi, great post, just used this to check my DKIM and SPF. Love the idea that you don’t have to keep resending the message.

However I’ve noticed that the SPF test sometimes returns “Result: PermError (Included domain ‘_spf.google.com’ has no applicable sender policy)”, and other times returns “Result: Pass (Mechanism ‘include:_spf.google.com’ matched)”? (on the same email, no DNS changes, with include:_spf.google.com in the SPF record). Is that an issue with the test, or an issue with Google’s servers?

thanks,
Christina

@OmegaSharp,

I’m not sure I follow what is going on. If you are sending a message with an envelope sender of ‘myname@myhost.com’, then you should have an SPF record for myhost.com that specifies that smtp.com is permitted to send mail from your domain name.

I sent an email as myname@myhost.com via relay smtp.com. Your tool checks myhostspf.smtp.com for SPF records. Is this the correct way? Or shall I ask smtp.com to add such a SPF record?

@Randy, Great idea, thanks. That has been implemented now. I also found this post that describes how the auto-whitelist works The Problem With Spamassassinâ€s AutoWhitelist Feature

Just a little suggestion for the SpamAssassin setup you use for checking on that page. It might be a good idea to turn off the auto(white|black)listing on it, so people aren’t getting hit with modifiers because they’re already sent off a few tests, like right now I’m getting “-1.3 AWL AWL: From: address is in the auto white-list”.
