[service] Introducing SPF records
by Razvan C. Oprea 20 Apr '18

20 Apr '18

Dear RIPE NCC members, At 07:00 UTC on Tuesday 24 April we will introduce, in the ripe.net DNS zone, a Sender Policy Framework (SPF) record with a soft fail qualifier that will allow remote mail servers to validate that the emails we send come from our domain. We are making this change because, recently, a significant number of Gmail or G Suite users have experienced issues when emails have been sent from our email servers. In certain cases, some of the emails were rejected or marked as spam. The only potential negative consequence of this change is that there will be an increased likelihood that forwarded emails will be tagged as spam by various email service providers. If you do not forward emails received from ripe.net email addresses, this change will not affect you at all. We have been made aware that some Gmail or G Suite users have lost emails or have experienced delays in mail coming from RIPE NCC mailing lists to which they are subscribed. Please review the mail archives of RIPE NCC Announce and Members Discuss to see if you missed any emails. https://www.ripe.net/ripe/mail/archives/ncc-announce/2018-April/thread.html https://www.ripe.net/ripe/mail/archives/members-discuss/2018-April/thread.h… We're sorry if you were affected by the recent issues. If you have any concerns or would like more details about this change, please contact the Operations Team directly at <ops(a)ripe.net>. Best regards, Razvan C. Oprea Senior Systems Engineer RIPE NCC
