    What do you mean SPF fortimail? That  would be the SPF checking for inbound mail and would have nothing tod with mail you send outbound if your concern on "your" ip reputation.

     

    FWIW:the inbound inspection allows for agressive or non or strict checks

     

    imho

     

    It's a good ideal to set  SPF for all unused domains or hosts that you don't expect to send mail from that will prevent or help others from spoof'ing mail from your domain/hosts  and if the far ESA  checks SPF records.

     

    If you have  poor reputation,  you can do a host of items &  apply controls on who send mail, filtering and reducing spam in outbound mail, proper  HELO EHLO strings and PTRs, and host of other items.

    remember reputation is gain by "sending" mail and gaining a positive  reputation score. if you don't send mail you stay in a neutral ( neither good or bad ) ;)
