Hi spamassassin crowd,

can I configure spamassassin to not do SPF check for certain
domains?

I assume that spf whitelisting is doing something else:
after a successfull spf check, classify the mail as ham.

Why I want to do this:

[EMAIL PROTECTED] is sending to
[EMAIL PROTECTED] Andy is somewhere (home/office/congress)
using often changing IP addresses. To compansate for this,
he uses the server example.com to relay all mail,
(authenticating by SASL = name+password)
which is good for SPF when sending
to outsiders, because all mail gets handed out by example.com,
so outsiders will get positive results from SPF checks.
( SPF record for example.com is  v=spf1 a ~all )
 
But the mail to Betty does not get relayed to the outside,
since it is delivered to Betty on the example.com server.
Thus the IP address being tested by SPF is the changing
IP address of Andy's locations' providers.

The SPF tests of Betty's spamassassin
(also on the server example.com) fails (SPF_SOFTFAIL)
and the two co-workers have troubles mailing to each other.

And there are more co-workers, some with different
dial-up IPs, providers, etc. so I could never hope
to have up-to-date SPF records containing them all.

In fact this seems to be a common case to me.
So the only solution with one server seems to
me that I tell spamassassin to not do the check
for the local domain(s).

thanks in advance.
