My organization is smallish and I in turn have an easier time of what happens here. I do a combination of things. One is that I monitor what gets sent to my ccAllSpam. I don't watch it always, but check on it for certain things based on flags marked by inbox rules. Another is that my users tell me when something marked as spam isn't being whitelisted - like list messages that have uniquely coded LHS email addresses that cannot be added to the whitelist.
this doesn't catch all the things I would prefer to exclude, but it helps me to NP most of them. -- ME2 (mobile) -----Original Message----- From: "Eric B." <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: Wednesday, Dec 6, 2006 1:06 am Subject: Re: [Assp-user] When to report IsNoSpam vs. IsWhitelist?

That's a very good point. I hadn't thought of that at all. NP'ing them would indeed prevent them from contributing at all the corpus > But I said in my previous post, "I NP most...", as there are some that I trust and are definately relevant to my organization. Unfortunately, many others are spammy and have ads or offers of service of some sort. How do you manage this though? When one of your users signs up for a mailing list / newsletter, how do you make sure it gets on the NP list? Are you scouring the logs everyday looking for list addresses and adding them in manually? What happens when the first email comes through (typically authentication) and your user responds to it? The list-admin-user will get added to the whitelist. How do you ensure that the whitelist doesn't contain any of these addresses? Thanks!
