Ouch.  I hereby consider myself slapped.

For the record, I did check out the Wiki and didn't find anything there (did 
a search for redlist but the search results were pointless).  Couldn't find 
much on the original doc site either (the search there doesn't work at all), 
and searching the archives, I didn't find a direct response.  I found a lot 
of responses discussing the redlist, but not in detail as to what tests it 
skipped, if anything.  Even searching google / wikipedia didn't offer me any 
clarification.

According to the interface, the redlist: "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."

All that information I knew already.  What I didn't know, was if redlisted 
emails skipped any other checks, such as either content checks or connection 
checks (for example, if it would skip a Validate Sender check, or LAV, etc). 
Or if the purpose of the redlist was purely to prevent an email of making it 
to the whitelist / corpus, but otherwise be considered exactly the same as a 
regular incoming email and follow all the same processing rules as regular 
email.

>From what I can tell, a redlisted email is nothing more than a regular email 
that can't make it to the whitelist/corpus, but I wanted to double check if 
I wasn't misunderstanding something.

I'll be honest - the redlist (and how to integrate it into my installation) 
has probably been the most confusing thing about ASSP from the start for me. 
And I can only assume that if I am confused by it, other may / would be as 
well.

Thanks,

Eric
