1.  use noprocessing for real paypal addresses. I think whitelisting this is 
bad, because it can skew your ham corpus to positively favor paypal and other 
phishing.

2.  Use SPF softfail

3.  use the paypal examples for the bombRe that are in the bombRe wiki article 
to take care of paypal phishing from non-paypal adresses.

Subject: [Assp-user] Stopping PayPal phishing email



ASSP is doing a great job for my servers, but I've noticed Paypal phishing 
email keeps getting through.

I have paypal.com set up in the whitelist to make sure legitimate paypal email 
gets through. I have SPF filtering on and notice the phishing scams fail the 
softfail validation, and have enabled the 'fail softfail
validation' but they still get through. It looks like the whitelisting give 
them a free pass on the softfail.

I am concerned that if I remove paypal.com from the whitelist, legitimate 
paypal email will get filtered.

I am running version 1.2.6.
