I think you misunderstood me.  My problem isn't what _my_ spamassassin says
about _my_ users' mails, but what other peoples spamassassin says about my
users' mails.  I can't change the configuration of _their_ SA.

And also what my spamassassin is saying about mails to my users from other
people who have dialup IPs and "incorrect" smtp servers.  I can't add all
their server to my trusted_networks.

SA is a really great tool, there is just that tiny detail where I
disagree.  Maybe we can start a serious discussion (or vote) here?

Hm, does it work without CIDR mask.  Like this:
 trusted_networks 192.168.123.45 192.168.123.46 192.168.123.47

I thought so until now, but you make me wonder whether I never noticed...?
Thanks,
 Andy.
