I've always thought that was silly. I would think your own address should always be excluded from whitelisting. When would email from yourself to yourself be filtered such that it would need whitelisting?

I find that I occassionally get messages that are clearly spam, but are whitelisted. The common characteristic is that they are sent with a from line that is my own email address, such as the following: X-Declude-Sender: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [77.85.117.187] X-Declude-Spoolname: D29db019e00002105.smd X-Declude-Note: Scanned by Declude 4.2.20 for spam. "http://www.declude.com/x-note.htm"; X-Declude-Scan: Incoming Score [0] at 17:12:28 on 24 May 2007 X-Declude-Fail: Whitelisted, ZEROHOUR [0] Now, I checked and I don't see why this is being whitelisted. We only whitelist a handful of IP addresses, and this isn't one of them. The whitelist settings in the global.cfg file are: #========================================= WHITELISTS ======================================= #WHITELIST HABEAS #DOMAINWHITELISTS OFF PREWHITELIST ON WHITELIST AUTH AUTOWHITELIST ON # ----- Domain Example ----- #WHITELIST FROM @declude.com # ----- User Example ----- #WHITELIST FROM [EMAIL PROTECTED] # ----- IP Example ----- WHITELIST IP 63.246.31.248 # ----- REVDNS Example ----- WHITELIST REVDNS .declude.com These are pretty much the defaults. The Autowhitelist ON command uses addresses in the web address book, so I checked those and found nothing (no addresses at all). I'm sure this is something really obvious, but could someone point it out to me? Thanks, Ben BC Web --- This E-mail came from the Declude.JunkMail mailing list.
