Thanks as alwasy Thomas. Almost everything you said is not only clear, but also how I hoped it would work. Shouldn't be a suprise - everything you seem to do makes sense...
Followup questions: >4) Say [email protected] is whitelisted globally but [email protected] has that address blacklisted. If [email protected] sends a single email to [email protected] and [email protected], will it get through to neither, both, or only user1? If blocked to user2 but not user1 will [email protected] still get a notification that it was blocked? > >that address blacklisted !!!! ---- "not white" meen not "black" > > Huh? You lost me on "not white meaning not black". > ----The whitelisted flag is a global flag per email - this flag will only > be removed from an email, if all envelope do not deni the sender in there > personal white. > So 1 person having it whitelisted and another blacklisted (personally), the white will win and the email will get through to both people right? > > I strongly recommend and request that we change the GUI functionality.

Then they send a message to 200 people including one of our recipients with a viagra link. When we catch it, we want to remove the 200 people from the globabl whitelist. Having to edit the string of addresses is a pain. Previously we could just copy paste and ASSP would parse the string to pull out the email addresses. Would it be hard to have the code assume that removals are global from the GUI unless the address,user syntax is used (in which case it would be per user). Along the same lines, whitelist additions from the gui should go to the master whitelist IMO and only also go to personal whitelists if using email,user syntax.

Any way to toggle that option? In all this sure seems like a great addition!
