Could be wrong, but don't think the problem will affect others outside us. Our lists and form mailers (blat) are to internal addresses only. "Normal" email (non-list serv mail) isn't being tagged.
We use 'poster only' lists and the problem seems to be with particular posters, because some posters' mail to the lists don't trip off anything. Just tested several forms and not all of those are getting tagged. Looks like a fun weekend if figuring this one out.

Depending on the problem, other spam filters used by others might be catching it, too. ~Katie -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of R.

That's usually not the best approach, for two reasons: [1] Many spammers know that people whitelist their own domain, so the spammers will often send the E-mail with a return address on your domain name. It's a very easy way for them to increase their paycheck by about 10-20% or so. [2] Although whitelisting your domain can help reduce false positives on your local-to-local E-mail, it's impossible for a whitelist to whitelist your E-mail on other servers. Normally, the best approach is to see what spam tests the E-mails are failing, and then fix the problem that is causing them to fail the spam test(s). -Scott --- Declude JunkMail: The advanced anti-spam solution for IMail mailservers.
