hi

i wish to whitelist a client's server static ip in the spamassasin
trusted
network

i am entering the line like this

trusted_networks xxx.yyy


if i do this then the email from this server ip should be given a
negative
score

but it does not seem to work

reading the wiki it seem that i need to turn the -L switch

Which wiki page(s) led you to that conclusion?
Which program (spamd?) is the -L switch for?

since this was not turned on by default in my qmail toaster
installation
i
would like some information as to any problems that i may face if i
turn
on the -L switch

thanks very much

I think you misunderstand what it's saying about the -L switch. It's
saying that configuring the trust path information is worth configuring,
whether or not you use the -L switch (QMT does not).

I think you need to describe your *entire* trusted network in the
trusted_networks parameter. The wiki says (above):
"Generally you want trusted_networks set to contain all the mailservers
you control that add Received: headers, and nothing else."

HTH.

eric

thanks for the information but i am still a bit confused on this.

basically i need to whitelist a few external servers IPS who send me email
are totally trusted.

i dont want to put the sender domain in the simscan file since anybody can
forge a domain name.

i tried to put the ips in trusted_network (spamassassin local.cf) but it
does not work ie a negative score of 50 is not given to email

how do i get this to work ?

I don't know SA that well off hand. Is there perhaps a device in between your trusted server and QMT, such that SA is not seeing/recognizing the address of the trusted server?

If the servers who are sending mail are all that trusted, is it possible to get them to authenticate? If they can authenticate and use port 587, the messages from them would bypass SA entirely.
