I host a domain (with email) that I have whitelisted both to & from in the global.cfg file. ...
If the sender is using the MS Outlook mail client to send email via a DSL line whose IP happens to be listed in the IPBlackList file, will his email be stopped by the IPBlacklist test even though it is Whitelisted in the Global.cfg?
No. A whitelist forces E-mail to pass all anti-spam tests (despite what Ipswitch tried convincing people with the original v8 releases). Since the E-mail has an @example.com return address, and you have "WHITELIST FROM @example.com", the E-mail will pass all the spam tests, and be delivered as if Declude JunkMail was not running.
There *are* some rare exceptions, but they are ones that you would know about (such as the bypasswhitelist option).
I seem to think that the WHITELIST commands will allow the mail to go thru without further tests (regardless of type) being performed - hence, the reason for WHITELISTING.
Correct.
However, you need to make sure that the E-mail address in the X-Declude-Sender: header matches the domain in the "WHITELIST FROM" line in the global.cfg file. If the user tries sending E-mail as "[EMAIL PROTECTED]", for example, their E-mail won't get whitelisted.
