As I was manually going through my spamfolder this evening I ran across a message from my son that was tagged as spam. I have a manual whitelist .cf file in /etc/mail/spamassassin and he is in the whitelist:
whitelist_from Brian Pollock <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> The from message header shows I've entered the right address: From: Brian Pollock <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> I don't even see where a whitelist entry was checked: 0.0 DK_POLICY_SIGNSOME Domain Keys: policy says domain signs some mails 0.0 DK_POLICY_TESTING Domain Keys: policy says domain is testing DK 0.0 DK_SIGNED Domain Keys: message has an unverified signature -0.0 DK_VERIFIED Domain Keys: signature passes verification 1.5 BE_BOSS BODY: Be your own boss 0.0 HTML_MESSAGE BODY: HTML included in message 1.0 BAYES_50 BODY: Bayesian spam probability is 40 to 60% [score: 0.5000] 1.4 HTML_10_20 BODY: Message is 10% to 20% HTML 0.2 DNS_FROM_RFC_ABUSE RBL: Envelope sender in abuse.rfc-ignorant.org 1.4 DNS_FROM_RFC_WHOIS RBL: Envelope sender in whois.rfc-ignorant.org 1.7 DNS_FROM_RFC_POST RBL: Envelope sender in postmaster.rfc-ignorant.org 1.0 SAGREY Adds 1.0 to spam from first-time senders Another non-spam message I've received that I have the from address in my whitelist was tagged correctly: whitelist_from [EMAIL PROTECTED] From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] X-Spam-Status: No, score=-102.7 required=5.0 tests=AWL,BAYES_00, DATE_IN_PAST_96_XX,DCC_CHECK,NO_REAL_NAME,USER_IN_WHITELIST autolearn=disabled version=3.1.5 BTW, this was from a message of 5 Oct, I've upgraded to 3.1.7 tonight. Was it not checked because of the syntax of the whitelist_from? whitelist_from Brian Pollock <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> vs whitelist_from [EMAIL PROTECTED] For him I have his name as well as his email address < > Or am I screwed up here? -- Chris
