msa_networks depends on trusted_networks, does it make sense ?

maybe, maybe not but i keep my trusted at very few, olso so dns
whitelist will be quered to give more whole view of the sender

The problem is not in SA. Apparently he's using a defunct DNSBL that's 
overriding the SA score. SA scored the message negative 40-mumble, which 
the glue ignored.

Look, you didn't get my most important point. Yes, I was pointing out
some spammy looking oddities -- but the real issue is...

That sender got an AWL of a whopping 50. Think about that. It means,
that while this particular mail scored low (read: not spam) without your
whitelist and AWL, the senders history average is *way* above that.
Something like an average of 100 or something. Thus AWL "corrected" the
score.

The real question for you is, *why* does that sender maintain an average
score higher than 50?

Again, any chance you sent a GTUBE test message using that sender?
Please re-read my previous post carefully. The point is, that if that
sender would *not* send messages scoring above 50 regularly, AWL would
not adjust the score that dramatically -- and there would be no need for
whitelisting in the first place. Think about it...


> I came to this forum just to get some help:  how do I whitelist myself
> effectively.

IMHO you do not need to whitelist. You need to investigate why the
average score for that sender is that high. Then fix that. Whitelisting
is just a bad work-around for the real issue.

(Also, you already do whitelist that sender in SA. It's mailscanner that
treated the message as spam, NOT SA.)

Moreover, as has been stated a few times -- SA did *NOT* reject that
particular mail. It was your broken mailscanner conf.

The above file is a MailScanner config file not a SpamAssassin config
file, it should NOT contain statements of that format. MailScanner's
whitelisting options are formatted differently (I don't use them but
they're something like "From: *...@example.com").

whitelist_from is a SpamAssassin option, and belongs in a spamassassin
file (ie: local.cf), if you want to whitelist at the SpamAssassin level.

That said, it looks like you've got MailScanner configured to trust ORDB
as a 100% reliable indicator of spam, no matter what SA has to say.

Looking at the below, SA whitelisted it (USER_IN_WHITELIST matched, and
SA declared a strong negative score), but MailScanner decided it was
spam anyway because of ORDB.

Be wary of what you put in your spam.lists.conf. Any RBL run there will
over-ride all SpamAssassin configuration. Actually, MailScanner will
always over-ride anything SA says with what's in its own config files,
so that's a general thing.

In light of all the other comments already given, I couldn't help to 
notice the 'ORDB-RBL' in the MailScanner header. I'm assuming that is the 
ordb.org RBL that's been dead for quite a while now. You should remove

1. Why are you checking outgoing mail?

don't do that. now spammers know how to evade your filters.

use reject_from_rcvd or reject_from_auth instead.

If you aren't concerned about forgery, a simple whitelist_from will work.

Matching the address isn't a problem, it's getting a RDNS for the rcvd part to
match that is a problem.

You can use whitelist_from.  This will only match on the From address, so is
quite spoofable.

Hello,

Thank you for your reply, and apologies for my delay in replying again.

If these emails are never going to match the whitelist, is there a way I can
always allow emails from certain addresses in a fool-proof way?

The addresses I need to allow though are very unlikely to be spoofed, so
this isn't too much of a concern.

Thanks again,
Richard.

Well it looks normal, but it doesn't look like it should match your whitelist.

I see a from address that matches inmac.co.uk, but I don't see a received:
header that matches inmac.co.uk. In order to be whitelisted the message must
match BOTH clauses.

Thus, this message will NEVER match:

def_whitelist_from_rcvd [EMAIL PROTECTED]   inmac.co.uk

In fact, what appears to be their server (164.38.196.85) doesn't have any RDNS
entry, so their mail will *never* be able to match any whitelist_from_rcvd
commands at all. Ever.

What does one of the Received: headers look like? My guess is if you're having
problems with them matching it's the rcvd part.

Either that or the From: is in a non-matching format, ie:
 [EMAIL PROTECTED]

They are case insensitive.

It's fixed in the new version (3.0.1), so you might consider upgrading

Hello Matt and Kris,

As per SA documentation, "whitelist_from" can understand several formats,
such as:

whitelist_from [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED]
whitelist_from [EMAIL PROTECTED]

And so on. So the problem was not pointing to there. Marco told me the
solution, that pointed to SA bug, and once applied his solution, anything is
working as expected.

Thanks, anyway, for your ideas.

Regards,

Hi Marco,

I added "-x" option to spamd start script as you mentioned (to prevent "user

Barring major changes to the configuration for whitelist_from since 2.64
(and back at least as far as 2.4x), whitelist_from should accept
multiple entries on each line.

For practical reasons, you may need multiple lines (I have serveral
users with ~30-odd lines of whitelist_from entries, totalling ~80-100
specific entries) and they work just fine for 2.64.

You're right about whitelist_from_rcvd though.

But e-mails coming from "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" or "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" are not
marked with USER_IN_WHITELIST. When I say "from" I refer to "From:" field

Um, does the above pass spamassassin --lint?
Suggestion: do ONE whitelist per whitelist_from statement, not two. 
whitelist_from should only accept one parameter.

whitelist_from_rcvd expects two parameters, but the second parameter is not

You're probably getting hit by bug 3855 ('whitelist_from in local.cf 
ignored after whitelist_from loaded from users prefs').

Either disable the user_prefs (if you are not using them) by giving 
spamd the '-x' option, or upgrade to 3.0.1, where it's fixed.
