Copy your $default$.junkmail to a new filename, e.g. $example.com$.junkmail, and adjust it accordingly. Then in the $default$.junkmail, insert lines at the beginning like the below to switch the specified domains and/or user accounts to the alternate config(s). # alternate config for a domain REDIRECT @example.com F:\IMail\Declude\$example.com$.junkmail # alternate config for a user REDIRECT [email protected] <mailto:[email protected]> F:\IMail\Declude\$user_example.com$.junkmail You can name the config files anything you want. The above are just placeholder names. We use that feature to turn off filtering for postmaster@ and abuse@ accounts in each domain we host. We have not had any domains or users that wanted to turn off filtering, but we have an emphasis on making sure all legitimate email gets delivered, and adjust filters constantly to achieve that result. You could also set up Declude to route messages marked as spam into a separate folder for the user and allow them to check that mail folder themselves. We polled our users and they overwhelmingly asked us not to do that, and asked us to continue monitoring held messages so they receive virtually no spam and all legitimate email with no bulk or spam folder to have to check. Hope this helps, Darin. From: Carl Wagar <mailto:[email protected]> Sent: Sunday, October 27, 2013 11:00 AM To: [email protected] <mailto:[email protected]> Subject: [MBF]relax filters/thresholds on a per user basis I often have specific users, who unlike others under their domain, would prefer to receive all email rather than have ANY be held, who’s concern about false positives is much greater than their concern about being sullied by the sight of any spam as per other users. I never find a whole organization can agree on a preferred set of SUBJECT/HOLD thresholds. Does anyone know if there is a way to have a per-user based $default.junkmail$ file or is there some magic I could put in the config or filter files to whitelist all incoming mail that has a particular TO address?
