Hi,

As many mailservers are checking SPF and SPF breaks forwarding, is it possible to use SRS on a forwarding SME ?

see http://www.openspf.org/SRS

Thanks,

There a patch available for qmail : http://www.mco2.com.br/opensource/qmail/srs/

Have you been able to compile qmail with the patch? It will not work for me:

Code: [Select]

In file included from srs.c:3:
/usr/local/include/srs2.h:136:2: error: #error "SHA1 requires an unsigned long of at least 32 bits"
srs.c: In function ‘srsforward’:
srs.c:106: error: void value not ignored as it ought to be
srs.c: In function ‘srsreverse’:
srs.c:151: error: void value not ignored as it ought to be
make: *** [srs.o] Error 1

IIRC patching qmail is allowed by end users, but sme server devs cannot patch qmail & distribute it (& nor can individual users legally), so the option to modify qmail does not really exist for sme devs as distributing it will break open source rules etc.

qmail has been in the public domain for several years now, so developers and others are free to distribute patched binaries.  It was once distributed under a much more restrictive license as you describe, but changed in November 2007.
