Below is a snippet from the log file from that day. I had attempted to whilelist adp.com. Every incoming message had the same result.

That is quite unusual -- I'm not sure how a typo like that could prevent Declude JunkMail from working. If it sees a line "WHITLIST IP 192.0.2.25", it would think that you are defining a test named "WHITLIST", and just add a warning to the log file. >To prevent this in the future, I was wondering if there's a way to reference >a separate whitelist sender file in Global.cfg, similar to how a sender >blacklist file can be configured. This can be done with the new WHITELISTFILE option in 1.75 -- it isn't listed in the manual yet (soon!), but searching the Declude JunkMail mailing list archives for WHITELISTFILE should bring up references to it. >Also, is there any updates in the works to prevent one bad config line from >wrecking the system? Yes -- we've been doing that for years. :) If you can send me the config file (or line) that was causing this problem, we can investigate to see why it happened. If you don't have it anymore, unfortunately there isn't much that we can do. -Scott --- Declude JunkMail: The advanced anti-spam solution for IMail mailservers.
