No, since the From is not from anything at gold.com.
(BTW, the correct syntax would be
> whitelist_from_rcvd [EMAIL PROTECTED] goldcom
)

For whitelist_from_rcvd to get scored, the From address must match
that first glob pattern (eg: [EMAIL PROTECTED]), and the last trusted
received header (in your case received ... by email1.gold.com) must be
from the domain name listed in the second parameter (gold.com).

Your trusted_networks should probably not be the domain gold.com, but
rather the IP addresses of the two machines email1.gold.com =
relay1.gold.com and also kashmir.gold.com (plus any other email/relay
machines that might handle the email).

Trying to understand whitelist_from_rcvd

2005-07-13 Thread Dr Robert Young

If this is set in local.cf

whitelist_from_rcvd@gold.com   gold.com
trusted_networks  gold.com ( via the IP address }

and the incoming email header looks like (xxx added by me)

Received: from email1.gold.com (relay1.gold.com [xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx]) by 
kashmir.gold.com with SMTP (Microsoft Exchange Internet Mail Service 
Version 5.5.2653.13)

Message-Id: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
From: "Dagnija Ragland" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
To: "Hashim Ojeda" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>

will the email be treated as "white" and get scored a -100 accordingly?

It's the first "Received" line I am wondering about matching with the 
white list..
