Title: RE: SA Users whitelisting/Bayes question

I'm using qmail.. But was hoping to be able to whitelist vi SA, likewise I was hoping there was some way to exclude from Bayes..  Currently I give them negative points based on the IP they come from, but those points put the messages into the auto-learn point level.. 

Thanks!

Depends on your system.  My mail is delivered by procmail, so I have a stanza in my .procmailrc that exclude SA list mail from SA scanning:

# Don't let SA filter this traffic as it could poison the Bayes filter.
