SPF DNS Entry
Traxel Settings
- IPV4: 69.10.40.10
- IPV6: fe80::d227:88ff:fe34:7999/64
- Format: v=spf1 ip4:40.113.200.201 ip6:2001:db8:85a3:8d3:1319:8a2e:370:7348 include:thirdpartydomain.com ~all
- Start with the SPF version, v=spf1.
- Indicates that this is an SPF record.
- Will always be spf1 as other SPF versions have been discontinued.
- We'll only ever need 640K of RAM.
- Next, all IP addresses that are eligible to send email on behalf of your domain.
- Space delimited
- prefix ip[n]:
- ip4:69.10.40.10 ip6:fe80::d227:88ff:fe34:7999
- Next comes the include statement, which lists every third party organization that sends email on your behalf.
- Does this mean interserver? Is this the part where reverse lookups come in?
- include:thirdpartydomain.com
- The end of the SPF record is the strictness level.
- "-all" - strictest, fail email that doesn't come from this ip list
- "~all" - accept but flag email from other servers
- "+all" - anything goes
- I'll be using "-all".
Looks like the only remaining question is the "include" tag. How do I handle the include tag and/or flag my server from the reverse lookup standpoint?
- If no include:
- v=spf1 ip4:69.10.40.10 ip6:fe80::d227:88ff:fe34:7999 -all
- This works. Problem solved. Grumble.
- If yes include:
- v=spf1 ip4:69.10.40.10 ip6:fe80::d227:88ff:fe34:7999 include:systemicbias.com -all
DeadmanDAO
IMAP Daemon
IMAP Server
apt-get install dovecot-imapd
Next should be Let's Encrypt, I think. I didn't make it to the part where I secure the service.
Cataloging Interserver v. Diffie
$ diff interserver/dovecot/conf.d/10-auth.conf diffie/dovecot/conf.d/10-auth.conf 8a9 > # See also ssl=required setting. 99c100 < auth_mechanisms = plain login --- > auth_mechanisms = plain
adding "login" to Diffie.
$ diff interserver/dovecot/conf.d/10-logging.conf diffie/dovecot/conf.d/10-logging.conf 24c44 < auth_verbose = yes --- > #auth_verbose = no 41c62 < mail_debug = yes --- > #mail_debug = no
Not changing this yet, but you can tell I was having just as much fun setting up Dovecot on Interserver. :D
