wrong spf result

[Stefan]

Hi,

policyd-spf results with:

policyd-spf[39681]: Fail; identity=helo; client-ip=212.144.243.129; helo=wwk.de; <email address hidden>; <email address hidden>

But this is a valid SPF configuration, at least http://www.openspf.net/Why?s=helo;id=wwk.de;ip=212.144.243.129;<email address hidden> says so.

Here are the versions I use:

# dig +short -t txt wwk.de
"v=spf1 a mx:WWK.de include:_spf.retarus.com -all"
# dig +short -t mx wwk.de
10 mail.wwk.de.
# dig +short mail.wwk.de.
212.144.243.129

# cat /etc/lsb-release
DISTRIB_ID=Ubuntu
DISTRIB_RELEASE=14.04
DISTRIB_CODENAME=trusty
DISTRIB_DESCRIPTION="Ubuntu 14.04.5 LTS"

#grep __version__ /usr/bin/policyd-spf
__version__ = "1.3.1: Jun 4, 2014"

# python3 -c "import spf; print(spf.__version__)"
2.0.10: Sep 2, 2014

Any idea what might be wrong here?

Thanks and regards
Stefan

I can't replicate this. It works fine now for me. It may be that they had a mistake in their SPF record and fixed it between when the policy server got an SPF fail and when you checked by hand. The policy server uses pyspf to get it's SPF results and it correctly shows pass for that IP on Ubuntu 14.04.

Closing due to lack of activity and insufficient information to act on.
