Advance payment for multiple invoices for multiple accounts

[David Gillam]

I believe the more scientific/exact answer is that Yahoo publishes SPF records that Google is honoring:

yahoo.com.		1800	IN	TXT	"v=spf1 redirect=_spf.mail.yahoo.com"
_spf.mail.yahoo.com.	897	IN	TXT	"v=spf1 ptr:yahoo.com ptr:yahoo.net ?all"

but is going a bit overboard about it (?all means this may not be a comprehensive list, so only soft-fail).  I assume Google's version of "soft-fail" is to quarantine the email, instead of reject it entirely.  Other email providers do different things--the one possibly best at it modifies the subject on ?all violations, so that the end user can determine how it should be handled.

This situation is exactly why SPFv2 (SenderID) was developed, but since so few places actually used it, the powers decided to deprecate it.  We now see how list traffic works (or doesn't) with just SPFv1.

If you'd like to move to an email provider who is more personal, let's you get the email you want, and doesn't sift your email for advertisement use, please contact me.  I can help.
