*Redlisted mail does not enter the corpus*. That's it - period. I
didn't respond to what Luke wrote - I responded to your statements
about "message ok" and logging destinations.
Redlisted email is still subject to additional processing, such as
Bayesian calculations, RE matching, etc. It just will not go into the
corpus, and yes, it wont get whitelisted.
The intent for this is to negate the chance of accidental corpus
pollution - which whitelisting would naturally contribute to - so,
redlisted mail will not contribute to the whitelist either.
I hope that made things clearer, and not more confusing.

I am completely confused now. The Show Redlist/Whitelist interface
states the following:
"The redlist is not a blacklist. The redlist is a list of addresses
that cannot contribute to the whitelist, and who are not considered
local, even if their mail is from a local computer. For example, if
someone goes on a vacation and turns on their email's autoresponder,
put them on the redlist until they return. Then as they reply to every
spam they receive they won't corrupt your non-spam collection or
whitelist."
If this is all a redlist does, then Luke is correct and what I wrote in
the content to be given to users is incorrect. As you can see, the
notation does not state anything about redlisting list emails or
legitimate spam emails. What exactly is a redlist?

I think you are confusing notspamlog (whitelisted) with baysNonSpamLog
(Bayesian message ok). Redlisted mail *wont* go into the corpus no
matter what baysNonSpamLog (message ok) option is.
baysNonSpamLog coincides with incomingOkMail, which by default is
blank/disabled (does not get saved).

We don't want Redlisted senders to contribute to the spamdb. The
defualt setting for mailok is 4. Since we redlist a sender it won't be
classified as spam and since the mailok option is 4, it won't be put in
the notspam directory. I don't see why someone would change the
default as that creates the possibility of spam that is incorrectly
given a mailok status corrupting the database.
Fritz, do redlisted senders get a mailok status. If so, doesn't the
redlist become pointless? Users could just forward an email they get
from list senders to the whitelist reporting address.

Your post to the ASSP List
(see
below) seems to imply that the redlist does not contribute to the
spam/notspam folders. This is not correct, it does not contribute to
the whitelist, but it does contribute to the spam/notspam folders. The
only exception to this statement is if the incoming redlisted mail is
classified "message ok" and your logging section section indicates a 4.
Otherwise if classified as spam it will go to the spam folder and
become part of your rebuildspamdb. See Redlist Section on the ASSP
Wiki. (Using and tested on ASSP v1.2.3)
