anonymous at best but doesn’t mean it has no value. Also for all I know they
are well respected in certain areas. When I first posted to this list one
common ISC poster’s attacks on posts turned me off to him but others pointed
out that he is with ISC and is knowledgeable in the subject. To me he seemed
like a troll annoyed by newbies which often made me wonder why he bothered with
the list at all. <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

after someone on this list talked about a debate as to the value of SPF. The
links I posted seemed to have some good points. My question wasn’t how much
value those two links had but rather whether people on this list think SPF
should be used at all. I didn’t post an exhaustive list of links but just two
that came up quickly when I looked into the debate as suggested.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

Who ?<br>
<br>
<br>
Ok enough of the sarcasm :) <br>
<br>
Is someone here seriously trying to use those sites as a "reason" to
not do something, might as well reference us to <a
href="http://www.mydogspewsupaftereatinglambbones.com">mydogspewsupaftereatinglambbones.com</a>
(dunno if that's a real site, but its name has about as much credence<br>
as the ones given). Seriously if you want to show why not,
reference a reputable site with reputable commentators.<br>
<br>
<br>
In relation to SPF2, if you use M$'s crap, you do have a slightly better
chance of hotmail not losing your mail, so it is worth it if you provide
services to anyone else other then yourself (where you *can* play god not
affecting anyone else).<br>
<br>
BUT... do NOT use spf2 enforcement on your side, or you'll find a lot of
mailing lists being very quiet :)<br>
<br>
