Selective spam filtering?

[Bill Anderson]

I have been playing around with the whitelist, but I can't seem to figure
out the best way to accomplish what I need.

Basically I have a domain, somedomain.com, which has about 3000 email
accounts on another mail server.  Only about 100 of the accounts want spam
filtering.  From what I can see with the whitelist, I need to put 2990 To:
accounts in the whitelist.  I guess it could be done, but it would be a
management nightmare.

Is there an easier way to just identify the 100 accounts as getting
filtered, while leaving the other 2990 unfiltered.  Thanks.

Yes, the spam whitelist lets you do exactly this. Take a look at the sample
supplied spam.whitelist.conf file.
