I'm probably confused but here is how I see the redlist at the moment.
- The redlist is a mechanism, like the notation of the ASSP
interface states, to prevent users who have auto-respond on from
contributing to the whitelist (since anyone a local user sends an email
to is added to the whitelist). Redlisting shouldn't be used to keep
list senders or legitimate spam senders from adding to the corups as it
is not its intended functionality. Also, genusfreak proved that emais
from redlisted senders will enter the corpus.
- Since it is a bad idea to have the incoming stream of email
adding to the notspam directory, ASSP should be configured to place
incoming good mail into the mailok directory. If ASSP is configured to
put incoming not spam email into the mailok directory, list email or
legitimate spam cannot pollute the corpus; thus, the logical reporting
step to take is to whitelist list senders that a user won't respond to
and to whitelist legitimate spam senders.
- If a sender is whitelisted, by default, the sender will have
emails that were incorrectly classified as spam removed from the spam
directory, the logical reporting step to take is to whitelist list
senders and legitimate spam senders.
- Finally, how would a local user redlist himself or herself using
the email interface?
