Abstract

“ More recently, I discovered a Trojan horse that uses Sender Policy Framework (SPF), which is an email validation system designed to prevent email spam, to achieve the same goal.

Basically, SPF consists of a domain name server (DNS) request and response. If a sender’s DNS server is set up to use SPF, the DNS response contains the SPF in a text (TXT) record.
