Description (partial)
Symptom: The advanced user guide in chapter "Email Authentication" does not state that the Content Filter Condition "SPF-Status" only checks the PRA identity. This needs to be added in the that chapter as customers are not aware of that which causes confusion and unnecessary support cases. Conditions: SPF verification is enabled for all incoming messages on Cisco IronPort Mail Flow Policies. A content filter exists which will quarantine or drop the messages if SPF-Verification fails: SPF-Verification spf-status == "fail" Action: 'Quarantine' mail_log or message tracking shows the following details: Thu Aug 20 17:27:37 2009 Info: MID 6153849 SPF: helo identity postmaster@example None Thu Aug 20 17:27:37 2009 Info: MID 6153849 SPF: mailfrom identity user@example.com Fail (v=spf1) Thu Aug 20 17:28:15 2009 Info: MID 6153849 SPF: pra identity user@example.com None headers from Thu Aug 20 17:28:15 2009 Info: MID 6153849 ready 197 bytes from <user@example.com> However, message is processed and delivered normally.
