The following errata report has been submitted for RFC7208,
"Sender Policy Framework (SPF) for Authorizing Use of Domains in Email, Version 1".

--------------------------------------
You may review the report below and at:
http://www.rfc-editor.org/errata_search.php?rfc=7208&eid=4081

--------------------------------------
Type: Technical
Reported by: D. Stussy <d.stussy@yahoo.com>

Section: 8.4

Original Text
-------------
(Paragraph 2):  if supported, the 5.7.1 enhanced status code
...

       550 5.7.1 SPF MAIL FROM check failed:
       550 5.7.1 The domain example.com explains:
       550 5.7.1 Please see http://www.example.com/mailpolicy.html


Corrected Text
--------------
if supported, the 5.7.7 enhanced status code
...

       550 5.7.7 SPF MAIL FROM check failed:
       550 5.7.7 The domain example.com explains:
       550 5.7.7 Please see http://www.example.com/mailpolicy.html


Notes
-----
5.7.1 generally refers to messages refused due to content or LOCAL policies.
5.7.7 refers to messages where there is an integrity problem.

5.7.7 is a better description for rejecting an unauthorized message due to the application of automatic checking criterion set by remote validation.

The author of this errata notes that the IANA is showing a pending addition to the enhanced codes to add SPF-specific error code 5.7.23 (in lieu of 5.7.1 or 5.7.7), but currently sees no valid RFC proposing it.  The draft is located at: http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-appsawg-email-auth-codes-07

Instructions:

rejected. When a decision is reached, the verifying party (IESG)
can log in to change the status and edit the report, if necessary.
