Although Perl is a nice tool inside UNIX/Linux, why should it be fired up 10.000 times a day as part of a UNIX/Linux email server system? The peoples from Amavis, Spamassasin, and also OpenSPF.org however seem to ignore this, as they only implement and test their reference software as a Perl package. Why? Why should one add a Perl plugin into Qmail ?? After short thoughts i rejected this approach, and created my own gear for running SPF1, SRS1, SRS2 on Qmail 1.03. Sender Rewriting Scheme SPS on Qmail 1.03 Sender Policy Framework SPF on Qmail 1.03 SRS1, SRS2 and SPF1 SPF1 Version 1.0.0-RC6 SRS1 version 0.3.1 SRS2 version 1.0.18 October 2007 compiled for Mandrake 10.1 i586/x86_64, RedHat Linux 7.3 i386 by Robert M. Stockmann (stock@stokkie.net) http://crashrecovery.org/SPF/ It's a SPF, SPF1 SRS1/SRS2 implementation using C source code only, using libspf1 and libsrs1 or libsrs2 for qmail 1.03. It seems to work allright on my dual P3 500MHz machine here :) The reason for doing this was the following usenet posting which i also made a webpage for : "The Anti Spam Controversy" http://crashrecovery.org/internet/#spf Robert -- Robert M.
