Interesting, I hadn't thought about that approach to this.  It seems like that would do the trick while still allowing mail from other IP's /Domains to go through unaffected.  Thank you for the suggestion and I will let you know how it works out

You can probably add the test server's IP to the spam whitelist, then add a "non-spam actions" ruleset that says something like:

To:allowed.domain.com deliver
To:allowed2.domain.com deliver
From:xx.xx.xx.xx store

That way, the first two domains "hit" and "deliver" the e-mails, while anything else from the test server will be "stored" - you could use "delete" but just in case use "store" so you can release them if necessary.
