[BlueOnyx:25852] Mass SPF tool

[Chris Gebhardt - VIRTBIZ Internet]

Hi All,

I'm sure everyone has noticed Google has begun rejecting mail altogether 
if there's no SPF record.  Typically this isn't a big issue since we 
have set up AutoDNS in BlueOnyx to pre-configure a SPF record on new 
site creations.   However, it appears we have a lot of hosted sites that 
pre-date that.  So now we're getting a number of tickets from customers 
with bouncing mail.

We're tackling these on a break-fix basis at the moment.   We would love 
to do something more proactive, but manually going through each vsite 
and creating a default SPF seems.... tedious. Especially when there may 
be multiple alias domains.

Does anyone have a good idea for an automated process that would search 
through configured vsites and check DNS for an SPF, then if there is not 
a SPF record, create a basic one allowing for email sent from the 
server's IP address or subnet?

I know I'm fishing... but thought I'd ask before we start a really 
tedious and brain-numbing process over here.
