Nothing. >We're not planning on implementing SPF ourselves, You should. You'll have trouble sending mail to some domains, such as Hotmail, without an SPF record for each domain name that sends mail. The list of other organizations that will look unfavorably on mail from a domain without an SPF record is expected to grow. For more information, check the list archives, or go to <http://spf.pobox.com/> - the wizard in particular is useful. >but we want to be sure we have the right stuff in our DNS for folks >who do use it. SPF records are just TXT records with special formatting in the data field. You don't need to do anything to your DNS server to support SPF records used by other people. If you want your mail server to support SPF records, that's another story, and is way beyond this forum. Go to <http://spf.pobox.com/> for more information.
