        The whitelist_from_rcvd uses the envelope "From" not the header
"From:".  Also, "whitelist_to" is only a few points (6, I think), not one
hundred.  But the bayes_ignore is an important suggestion.  These work
for me (rDNS is easy to spoof, so *.apache.org is not safe):

        whitelist_from_rcvd [EMAIL PROTECTED] mail.apache.org
        whitelist_from_rcvd [EMAIL PROTECTED] hermes.apache.org
        bayes_ignore_to [email protected]

if more complex expressions were allowed something like:

whitelist_from_rcvd [EMAIL PROTECTED] mail.apache.org
whitelist_from_rcvd [EMAIL PROTECTED] hermes.apache.org

would be preferable.

P.S.  Yes, you could not run these through SA, but the resulting markup
is often helpful in understanding the posting/question.
