RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Working patch

Description of problem:

Using postfix and spamassassin with spf checking, an error message 'spf: lookup failed: addr is not a string at /usr/share/perl5/vendor_perl/IO/Socket/IP.pm line 662. occurs on some DNS servers.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
perl-Socket-2.010-4.el7

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install postfix and spamassassin
2. Configure postfix to use spamassassin
3. Receive an incoming mail and spamassassin evaluates it

Actual results:
error message 'spf: lookup failed: addr is not a string at /usr/share/perl5/vendor_perl/IO/Socket/IP.pm line 662. occurs on some DNS servers and SPF checking does not happen

Expected results:
Spamassassin should check SPF results

Comment 2 Petr Pisar 2016-03-29 08:53:13 UTC
So is this the same issue as bug #1200167? Even the patch is subset of patch for bug #1200167. I feel this is a duplicate of bug #1200167. Do you agree?
