unconditional whitelists are as bad as unconditional blacklists

none of both i would say

no bayes mistraining and there is no sender host which never
is affected by something bad passing by - recently had the
same happening on the own network

thats's why you have a *content* filter which should not
unconditionally whitelist

no message content available - we don't store anything on the gateway
3 cases with score -5 twice and one time -2

message-id=<....@xtinmta4208.xt.local
bounce-...@bounce.mail.hotels.com

unlikely - i am the only one who trains the bayes

frankly i collected a lot of newsletters and stuff for HAM
where i thought "well, how that message is built normally
would not deserve any good scoring"

even if - the bayes should not be *that* outbeated and the fear
from a possible FP is not a good reason for nearly unconditional
whitelists and -2 + 7.5 would have been 5.5 which is still fine
having a milter-reject of 8.0

what if a account there is hacked which can happen everytime?
until such a WL is terminated a spam wave makes it's way
