I'm using SpamAssassin 3.0 when I use whitelist_from_rcvd with domain names that reverse to only one possible domain it works just as it should. When the domain name is one that has multiple possibilities that it can reverse dns to then it doesn't work unless it happens to pick the domain name listed in my whitelist_rcvd_to entry. For example, if I create an entry for whitelist_from_rcvd [EMAIL PROTECTED] domain1.com but the server hosting domain1.com also hosts domain2.com, anotherdomain.com and anotherdomain.net, I have problems. Say the server that hosted email for the domain I wanted to whitelist had an ip of 123.123.123.1 and I did dig -x 123.123.123.1, it would give me all the various domains that that address is configured for.


I think this is what's going on anyway. I looked at the output from spamassassin -D -t < problem then I notice that the rdns= is for one of the other domains hosted on the server and not the domain I would like to whitelist. When I examine the same output from a message that is working, the rdns= is the domain name that I specified in the whitelist_from_rcvd entry. Do I need to specify the IP address of the server using multiple dns entries to get whitelist_from_rcvd to work or should this not be an issue and I need to look at other reasons why this particular domain is causing problems.
