Phishing exception list?

[Jim Barry]

    [ The following text is in the "iso-8859-1" character set. ]
    [ Your display is set for the "US-ASCII" character set.  ]
    [ Some characters may be displayed incorrectly. ]

Yes.  From the MailScanner Conf file:

# Do you want to check for "Phishing" attacks?
# These are attacks that look like a genuine email message from your bank,
# which contain a link to click on to take you to the web site where you
# will be asked to type in personal information such as your account number
# or credit card details.
# Except it is not the real bank's web site at all, it is a very good copy
# of it run by thieves who want to steal your personal information or
# credit card details.
# These can be spotted because the real address of the link in the message
# is not the same as the text that appears to be the link.
# Note: This does cause extra load, particularly on systems receiving lots
#       of spam such as secondary MX hosts.
# This can also be the filename of a ruleset.
Find Phishing Fraud = yes

Define a custom ruleset to omit specific From/To addresse/domains/IPs from
the phishing checks.
