JD, Nice work. Good to hear Hotmail is doing their fair share to be a responsible member of the community by adapting SPF. Does this mean that other improvements, such as not defaulting to sending HTML-tagged e-mail with a 10-column line wrap, aren't far behind? =) ---Rico On Mon, 26 Jul 2004 14:05:17 -0700, J.D.

Does it strike anyone else as odd that they would be encouraging the use, but not have SPF setup yet for the primary domains they are known for yet?
From that article: 'Sender ID is a proposed technology standard, backed by Microsoft, for verifying an e-mail message's source. It combines two previous standards: the Microsoft-developed "Caller ID," and the Meng Weng Wong-developed SPF.'
Here's Hotmail's Caller ID record:
_ep.hotmail.com text = "<ep xmlns='http://ms.net/1' testing='true'><out><m><indirect>list1._ep.hotmail.com</indirect><indirect>list2._ep.hotmail.com</indirect><indirect>list3._ep.hotmail.com</indirect></m></out></ep>"
