Thanks I wound up using the part of the comfit that Julian recommended.
I wanted to comment that IP's work fine also. Both /32 and /16 listed
addresses.
Based on the comments of the config it looked like domain names would
only be accepted.
Thanks allot Julian for your help.
# The purpose of this option is to set it to be a ruleset, so that you
# can skip all scanning of mail destined for some of your
users/customers
# and still scan all the rest.
# A sample ruleset would look like this:
# To: bad.customer.com no
# From: ignore.domain.com no
# FromOrTo: default yes
# That will scan all mail except mail to bad.customer.com and mail from
# ignore.domain.com. To set this up, put the 3 lines above into a file
# called /etc/MailScanner/rules/scan.messages.rules and set the next
line to
# Scan Messages = %rules-dir%/scan.messages.rules
# This can also be the filename of a ruleset (as illustrated above).
Scan Messages = %rules-dir%/scan.messages.rules
scan.messages.rules:
From: 10.9.1.10 no
From: 10.9.1.11 no
From: 10.2. no
FromOrTo: default yes
