I have a similar problem when a user forward all incoming emails to a not local domain as for example to @GMail.com.
1st, this is going to autowhitelist all incoming spammers to this fellow unless you add the user to the redlist (doesn't add to whitelist) or add a text string to the "no processing" regEx file to tell ASSP to ignore the message. You would want to add a header line that gets added to every incoming email by your ASSP or Imail server to tell ASSP that it has already seen this email when it came in and to ignore it while going out. I won't tell you what I use as it is like giving out a free pass.
Imail generated vacation messages and auto responses will also cause spammers to be whitelisted unless you add those messages' common subjet text (ie. "automated response" for vacation messages) to the no processing list. Contact the ASSP support list on this if you have more questions.
I have setup an alias in Imail for that user of this_is_spam@<mydomain>.com and this_is_notspam@<mydomain>.com which then forwards to the addresses ASSP is listening for of [EMAIL PROTECTED] and [EMAIL PROTECTED] with spam.filter added as a local domain in ASS, but it does not work.
So your user receives a spam in his Gmail account after being forwarded. He then forwards that spam to this_is_spam@<yourdomain>.com but it does not work. "it does not work" is kinda vague. What do your logs say? Does your ASSP service see the email from Gmail? Does it then get passed to Imail or get blocked? What does Imail do with it? Does it show being sent to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Does sending an email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] work within your network? Check the ASSP and Imail logs and track the email's progress through your servers, the failure point will become evident.
