MailScanner and SpamAssassin

[Bingham, Ryan]

Check /usr/share/spamassassin/60_whitelist.cf (or wherever you might have the file)

This file contains the default SA whitelist.  You can either comment out the hosts you don't want (keep in mind that re-installing or upgrading SA will overwrite this file), or I believe you can override these settings with the following entry in your spamassassin.prefs.conf file:

unwhitelist_from add at ress.com

Julian can confirm if this setting will work in work in spamassassin.prefs.conf.

Yes.  None of it matches anything in the spam.whitelist.rules file.  It is a funny thing!

Did you check their envelope address versus the whitelist? 
We had a spammer faking their envelope address as someone on our whitelist.

I am running MailScanner and SpamAssassin, and am VERY pleased with the 
results!  All though, I have noticed a problem, which is probably something 
in my configuration.  Every once and awhile some spam will come through with 
a rating of 19 or 21, which is well above the limit I have set at 5.  If you 
look in the header it looks like this: 
X-Priority: 1 
X-MSMail-Priority: High 
X-MailScanner-Information: Please contact the ISP for more information 
X-MailScanner: Found to be clean 
X-MailScanner-SpamCheck: not spam (whitelisted), SpamAssassin (score=19.5, 
        required 5, ALL_NATURAL, BANG_EXERCISE, BAYES_90, CLICK_BELOW_CAPS, 
        DATE_IN_PAST_06_12, DRASTIC_REDUCED, FORGED_MUA_OUTLOOK, 
        FROM_HAS_MIXED_NUMS, HTML_40_50, HTML_FONT_BIG, 
HTML_FONT_COLOR_BLUE, 
        HTML_FONT_COLOR_RED, HTML_LINK_CLICK_CAPS, HTML_LINK_CLICK_HERE, 
        MANY_EXCLAMATIONS, MIME_HTML_ONLY, MISSING_MIMEOLE, MLM, 
        X_MSMAIL_PRIORITY_HIGH, X_PRIORITY_HIGH) 
Obviously it is getting through because it is whitelisted.  I dont have 
these guys whitelisted anywhere though.  Can someone please point me in the 
right direction?  Any help, as always, will be GREATLY appreciated.  Thanks!
