New SPF features for Fortimail 5.2.5

I have noticed from the command line that there are new SPF features, but the official documentation does not contain any information on the extra features. There is now a aggressive-anti-spoofing and strict-anti-spoofing setting.

 

Does anyone have more information on these new features?

 

mx7 (settings) # set spf-checking 
 aggressive                  aggressive check: strict check, plus SPF soft fail, ( ~all ), as spam
 aggressive-anti-spoofing    aggressive check, plus sender spoofing check
 strict                      strict check: SPF hard fail, ( -all ), as spam
 strict-anti-spoofing        strict check, plus sender spoofing check

Hello

well, IMHO you don't need more documentation on this, because all the switches  ( ~, -, etc) are SPF implementation related more than specif to Fortimail.

Check for SPF documentation anywhere to get the whole picture.

FML 5.2.5 will be able to manage each spf switch as spam, applying the appropiate action you've configured for spf in your AS profile.
