in thread SPF for Perl Monks domains

I don't understand why adding the middle server to the list of hosts shouldn't work. I'm doing that now for one domain and as far as I can tell, it works. The domain's SPF record is like: v=spf1 a:primary-mx a:forwarding-mx -all (for those who don't know SPF: this means "allow messages from the IP of primary-mx and the forwarding-mx, but reject messages coming from anywhere else").

Juerd # { site => 'juerd.nl', plp_site => 'plp.juerd.nl', do_not_use => 'spamtrap' }

    The domain's SPF record is like: v=spf1 a:primary-mx a:forwarding-mx -all

    This configuration only allows mail to be sent for the domain from the specified hosts primary-mx and forwarding-mx - It does nothing for mail from other domains which may be forwarded through the host forwarding-mx. For forwarded mail to be correctly received, the SMTP envelope must be rewritten.

     

    perl -le "print unpack'N', pack'B32', '00000000000000000000001011010111'"
