Problem description:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] sends a ham message to himself (i.e.
From:==To:[EMAIL PROTECTED]). Autowhiltelisting mechanism
adds [EMAIL PROTECTED] to the whiltelist. A spammer sends spam to [EMAIL PROTECTED] from forged address [EMAIL PROTECTED] Spam gets through with USER_IN_WHITELIST rule.
The question is: how to disable autowhiltelisting in case
of From:==To:?
Thanks for your help.

I disabled AWL alltogether because of these.
Well, did it solve them? It shouldn't have, because the AWL doesn't affect USER_IN_WHITELIST. It affects the rule named AWL.

 Seems to be an unnecessary feature to me.

Well, the AWL is nice in some cases.. remember, it's also an ABL (auto-blacklist).. Well, actually, it's neither a whitelist nor a blacklist, but it has those effects, because it tracks a sender's historical average. The Wiki articles on the AWL should be a good introduction to the topic...

However, the AWL has *NOTHING* to do with the problem in this thread... The AWL will never cause USER_IN_WHITELIST to fire.. Ever..
