mail forwarding is the primary achilles heel of SPF. There's nothing
fedoraproject.org can do about the SPF records that your domain has
published. And fedoraproject.org does not currently implement an SPF-
forwarding-enabled service, as it's really quite painful to do.
It's due to my provider restriction. Fedora's mail server looks for them
like a spamer trying to send an email from a domain which defines (by
SPF) though which smtp servers it can be sent.
Perhaps your domain can not specify "-all" (hard fail
messages
originating from elsewhere), and instead specify "~all" (this
message didn't come from one of our mail servers, perhaps it needs
additional spam scrutiny).
It's a quite big mail provider and they fight hard with spam. Probably
it won't be an option to they also due to performance issues.
Does anybody know how SourceForge deal with that? I receive mail sent
via @users.sf.net alias without any problem.
