Whitelist and disarming

  Hi All,

I would like  to have Mailscanner do not change some emails, in any way. 
I have added the source email address to whitelist.rules:

# pwd
/usr/local/etc/MailScanner/rules
# grep @ spam.whitelist.rules
From:    *@some_domain.com    yes


My problem is that these emails are disarmed. Their subject and content 
is changed. It is a big problem beacuse these emails contain product 
stock info updates from our partner, and we have programs that process 
these emails. However, they cannot process the disarmed emails. I was 
looking at the documentation but I could not find a way to do this. E.g. 
configure mailscanner so that mails from "*@some_domain.com" are not 
disarmed, subject, headers and body not changed. It would be ideal to 
run virus scanning and spam filtering at the same time (and quarantine 
spam/virus emails). How can I do this?

My system is FreeBSD 7 amd64. Mailscanner version is 4.78.9

Thanks,

   Laszlo
