Julian,

 I felt that was the case but I checked /etc/MailScanner/rules/spam.whitelist.rules first and it does not have anything with yahoo.com, 'dommknotsvnub at yahoo.com', entered.  Could I be looking at the wrong whitelist file?

 I just received the following spam with the same whitelist message and again I have nothing pointing to hotmail.com

Lou.

Exactly as it says, it is in your MailScanner spam whitelist.
