 In any case, look to http://wiki.mailscanner.info/posting before posting.
 
 The option you're looking for is in mailscanner.conf, and it's called "is definitely not spam =" and it's set to %rules-dir%/spam.whitelist.rules - which means you should edit that file in order to add your client to the "it's definitely not spam" category.
 
 It reads by default:
 
 "FromOrTo:   default   no" - which means the default is "no, I don't think of anything at all as 'not spam'"
 
 You should add (before this line) a line that says:
 
 From:   myclient at hisdomain.com   yes
 
 So that it marks him as not spam... But that brings you the problem of people POSING as him, impersonating his e-mail address. You should *really* look into the REASON why they're being marked as SPAM and correct it, otherwise you're just not doing anything about it.
 
 In any case, you should really buy the book or read the FAQ/MAQ/Wiki. I've had all my clients buy the book (there are three, I think, that already sent for it, the others are on their way), and I've heard from one of my clients that already has the book that it's an excellent read.

thanks for the reply. i already read it and found out that i dont have anything listed on my spam.whitelist.rules
 
 here's what i want to do.
 1. Allow SysAd sender (From)
 2. Deny Sportal.com (From)
 
 FromorTo:            SysAd            yes
 FromorTo:                Sportal.com     no
 FromorTo:            default             no
 
 is this correct ? to check if i understand it correctly 
 
 thanks.
