SpamAssassin not following private whitelist commands
in [Debian]

From: Ron Johnson on 2 Mar 2010 20:40 Hi, (Up-to-date Sid system.) SA, which is "attached" to Postfix, isn't doing what I think it should do. According to instructions I found on the Intarweb, per-user whitelist addresses go in ~/.spamassassin/user_prefs with the format: whitelist_from foo(a)bar.com (Yes, I restarted SA after adding the entries, and the machine has even been rebooted since then.) However, whitelisted accounts are still being scored as spam. Any thoughts?

I'll see how that worked. -- Ron Johnson, Jr. Jefferson LA USA I like my women like I like my coffee - purchased at above-market rates from eco-friendly organic farming cooperatives in Latin America. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-REQUEST(a)lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".

"whitelist_auth" of "whitelist_from_rcvd" should be used, if at all possible. whitelist_from accepts also spam, if the sender address is forged, which most often is in spam or virii. -- http://www.iki.fi/jarif/ Don't get stuck in a closet -- wear yourself out.

Unfortunately whitelist_from_rcvd requires a second "relay rDNS" parameter, and whitelist_auth requires SPF or DKIM. Is it possible to have something like whitelist_from_rcvd without the second required parameter? |
