SPF Toolbox is a powerful tool for checking and validating email sender's SPF (Sender Policy Framework) records. In this tutorial, we will show you how to install SPF Toolbox on NetBSD.
SPF Toolbox is hosted on GitHub, so we need Git to download the source code. To install Git, run the following command as root:
pkgin install git
Now that we have Git installed, we can clone the SPF Toolbox repository using the following command:
git clone https://github.com/roehling/spftoolbox.git
This will create a new spftoolbox directory containing the source code.
SPF Toolbox relies on several packages that we need to install first. Run the following command as root:
pkgin install libidn libidn2 libyaml ldns
We are now ready to compile SPF Toolbox. Change into the spftoolbox directory and run the following commands:
./autogen.sh
./configure
make
This will configure and build SPF Toolbox. Depending on your machine's speed, this may take several minutes.
Finally, we can install SPF Toolbox by running the following command as root:
make install
SPF Toolbox should now be installed and ready to use.
In this tutorial, we have shown you how to install SPF Toolbox on NetBSD. With SPF Toolbox, you can quickly and easily validate the SPF records of email senders, which can help to prevent phishing and other email-based scams.
If you want to self-host in an easy, hands free way, need an external IP address, or simply want your data in your own hands, give IPv6.rs a try!
Alternatively, for the best virtual desktop, try Shells!
