Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist

* Package name    : spfd / libmail-spf-query-perl
  Version         : 1.99
  Upstream Author : Meng Weng Wong <mengwong+spf@pobox.com>

  Description     : Mail::SPF::Query - implementation of the Sender Permitted From anti mail forgery approach

SPF is a standard extension to Internet email which protects people from
email forgery. The SPF protocol relies on sender domains to publish a DNS
whitelist of their designated outbound mailers. Several high-volume email
domains have started to publish SPF records. The SPF site is
http://spf.pobox.com .

This particular code is the reference implementation of SPF, including
* Mail::SPF::Query - a perl module to determine the legitimacy of an SMTP
  client IP.
* spfd - a perl daemon (accessible over Unix sockets or TCP sockets) to
  check an SMTP client IP against SPF records
* spfquery - a command line check script
* documentation and examples of how to utilise SPF from the exim4, postfix 
  and sendmail MTAs.
