NO no no no no no no !!! You do not put your 'email-addresses' in your whitelist, the whitelist is optional and is for "clients" that are authorized to send you emails with a "from:" address set to your domain ..
The rule works like this : 1) if *client* is found in whitelist, then accept the email *else* 2) If the 'MAIL FROM' adress is @mydomain.org, reject it.. Our MTAs are in the DMZ and have no 'knowledge' of internal mail addresses. - Rķkharšur -----Original Message----- From: Mark London [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 14 May, 2004 4:04 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: Found a way to avoid spamassassin! How to fix? So yeah, the only way around this appears to be what you are doing, which is to not only create a cyrus mailbox, but also put the valid usernames in a whitelist, which in my case is sendmail's access database, and reject all other usernames. This means keeping 2 databases, but I don't see any other chance. Thanks. Mark
