Hello
All the emails from this board (subscriptions to threads) are sent by a server that is specifically denied by the SPF policy.
Is it and error?

SPF would be usefull if mailservers were actually configured to care about it like they should...

I use thunderbird with Sender Verification plugin (there is such a thing
for almost every client except Outlook :) ).
This plugin checks the Sender Policy Framework definition - it is a list
of servers allowed to send mail for a certain domain, it is implemented
as query/answer to/from DNS server for domain.
If this policy is not set in DNS, than the SPF check return something
like "Sending domain does not support verification"
The problem is that for doom9.net.........
OK, I found it :)
The board is configured to send mail as @doom9.net instead of doom9.org
