Whitelisting rule query

[shyam hirurkar]

Hi,

Thanks a lot it is working fine.
I have one small doubt on white listing when my MX receives mail from same
user to same user then
it is white listing . Any reason for this because of this some spoof and
spam mails are passing through, I checked in database (mailwatch) but there
is no such entry for the user.Also observed this is randomly happening for
some random users.

Thanks,
shyam
