On a slightly related note, Michael W. Lucas[1] is working on an upcoming book entitled "Run Your Own Mail Server", that will be published shortly (there's a Kickstarter campaign as well[2]).

I attended his tutorial and talk at BSDCan[3] this year and both were excellent. I highly recommend buying the book when it comes out (or supporting the Kickstarter), it will go through all the gory details of setting up and running a mail server, and best practices, including a ton of material on SPF/DKIM/DMARC.

(P.S. I have no affiliation with the author or the book in any way.)

Looking forward to this. First thing I ever ponied up on KS for.

I don't even run a mailserver, I'm just hoping it will take a bunch of the guides that have been floating about on the web, consolidate the sharp edges, and make sure its up to date.

I also hope it has some discussion on troubleshooting. Like dealing with blacklists and what not, folks always talk about that, but I've never see it documented what is actually done to resolve these problems (Like who do you send an email to, how do you even find out who to send an email to, etc.)
