If SA can see that the message was authenticated, it will extend its trust network to include the machine that authenticated. This mainly affects things like blacklist lookups. Other than that, it will have no effect. SA will scan everything you give it regardless of the source. If you do not want certain messages to be scanned, you need to find a way to prevent them from being sent to SA. Perhaps there is a setting in sa-milter for this. -- Bowie
