Travis, "My only wish is that we could setup the global.cfg file to fire the tests in the order we choose."
This is on our development wishlist.

That is a new feature in imail 8+ I don't see it as that big of a benefit really. With combo filters, good use of declude pro's content scanning (headers, body, subject) built in tests, dns tests, ip4 tests... carefully planned counter balances, use of the many tests from matt's web site.... I don't feel the need to whitelist authenticated users. I have several test email accounts throughout the net, and many spam-trap as well. Declude's fabulous weighting system really reduces false positives. An email failing two tests will not get held on my system, it generally takes at least 3 of the most accurate tests and up to six of the others... My only wish is that we could setup the global.cfg file to fire the tests in the order we choose. To ensure counter weights, (ie - microsoft.com -3), are considered before any other tests are ran. I don't use any whitelists at all... major cause of increased spam through the filters. If you have one user that can't receive email from a source, whitelisting that user will allow any spam that comes in to be delivered... yikes!!! Nasty!!! Instead, via the logs, find out the source RVDNS and counter-blanace that email with a negative weight, start off with even -100 if you have to, then work down from there.
