It would be _most_ helpful to have the line in question available for 
examination, together with indications as to whether whitespace in 
the line is space(s) or tab(s).

Hi All,

I am assuming that the "line in question" is my spam.whitelist.rules file.
I set that file back to its default setting in attempt to clear up the
error.

The spam.whitelist.rules file is below:


# If you are basing a blacklist on this then you can refer to
# a null (empty) sender address with "/^$/" as the address to match.
#
# This is where you can build a Spam WhiteList
# Addresses matching in here, with the value
# "yes" will never be marked as spam.
#From:          152.78.         yes
#From:          130.246.        yes
FromOrTo:       default         no

Thanks,
