The obvious part is bypassing is done for recipients, not senders.

One option, in 20-debian_defaults - in @score_sender_maps, look for:

#  read_hash("/var/amavis/sender_scores_sitewide"),

You could uncomment and configure this. Copy your existing file over, and
assign a score to each sender. You can give a negative (whitelist-ish) score,
or positive (blacklist-ish) score:

[EMAIL PROTECTED] -3
.example2.com -7.5
example3.com -5.0
badguy.com 5

Make sure you give each sender a score.

You could copy the entire @score_sender_maps section from
20-debian_defaults to 50-user if you prefer to leave
20-debian_defaults untouched.
