Hi Shane,

Outgoing email recipients should be whitelisted automatically by default as
long as you are routing your outbound mail through ASSP.

I have found the default bomb/black settings to be far too aggressive in my
experience though, so I have changed them as follows (keep in mind that all
of my comments are related to ASSP v1):

Under Regex/Bombs:

Use Black Regular Expression to Identify Spam (DoBlackRe,default=block):
CHANGED TO SCORE

Use Header Regular Expressions (DoBombHeaderRe,default=block): CHANGED TO
SCORE

Use Subject Regular Expression on Subject (DoBombSubjectRe,default=block):
CHANGED TO SCORE

Use Bomb Regular Expressions (DoBombRe,default=block): CHANGED TO SCORE

I also changed Maximum Penalty on Regex Match per Mail per Check
(bombMaxPenaltyVal,default=70) to 50, although it didn't really seem to
limit the maximum penalty on a test message I sent, I'd have to do some
additional testing to confirm this.


Under Scoring Settings:

Black Expression Matching (blackValencePB,default=40): CHANGED TO 9

Bomb Expression Matching (bombValencePB,default=40): CHANGED TO 9


These settings seem to work very well, penalizing messages with suspicious
content but not blocking them entirely.  True spam has additional issues
that ultimately cause it to be blocked, this just helps to push it over.
Your mileage may vary.

Hi Guys,

I am having an issue where customers are replying to mails that were
originally sent out by some of the sales guys and the mail is getting
blocked with the following reason:

[spam found] -- bombRe: '10% discount , 5% discount'

Is there anything I can do to ensure that these mail addresses are getting
whitelisted?

Kind Regards,
