I agree with the documentation. > > Why would you run RBL checks on something in your trusted_networks? I'm sure you are missing something obvious now. One doesn't run RBL checks for hosts inside trusted_networks just like you said. Also do not quote documentation etc when trying to make sense of technical things, it could be misleading or wrong. I suggest you look deeply in the code and see how things work in the real life. > Why would you run RBL checks and whitelist checks in different places? Yes it would be more logical to check whitelists at MX border also, but such are the rules historically. It's not wrong per se, in some cases it might be helpful. -- Configure bugmail: https://issues.apache.org/SpamAssassin/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug.
