libspf2 for Debian
2
==================
3
 
4
Debian's version of libspf2 does a couple of things slightly
5
differently compared to the upstream version (usually meaning: more
6
RFC-compliantly). You can always see all applied patches by
7
downloading the source package and looking in the debian/patches
8
subdirectory. All patches should also be mentioned in the Debian
9
changelog. Some deserve further comment, though:
10
 
11
* 42_empty_sender.dpatch changes SPF_request_set_env_sender() so that
12
  if called with an empty envelope sender, the envelope sender in the
13
  SPF_request_struct structure will be set to the HELO identity
14
  instead ("postmaster@" + the HELO domain), provided that
15
  SPF_request_set_helo_dom() has been called beforehand. This should
16
  improve behaviour of applications that (incorrectly) call
17
  SPF_request_set_env_sender() with an empty envelope sender address.
18
  However, applications SHOULD NOT RELY ON THIS, but should check if
19
  the envelope sender address is empty, and in that case pass the HELO
20
  identity instead, or use the result of an earlier HELO check.
