<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>No, you're overlooking the blacklist part. The
whitelist "no" parm you used for "test" indicates that it is not whitelisted and
must go through the normal steps of any other email. You need to add test to the
blacklist to make it definitely spam.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>You should use your example in a circumstance where
you might whitelist an entire domain, but want only the "test" address "not" to
be whitelisted. For example:</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>In whitelist file</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>FromOrTo: <A
href="mailto:test@domain.com">test@domain.com</A>
no</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>FromOrTo: <A
href="mailto:*@domain.com">*@domain.com</A> yes</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>In blacklist file</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>FromOrTo: <A
href="mailto:test@domain.com">test@domain.com</A>
yes</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>This would exclude the "test" address from
whitelisting but whitelist everyone else in that domain . The blacklist would
make "test" definitely spam. The "no" in the white/black list is used mostly for
exclusions, the "yes" is for inclusion, for the white or black list file it is
inside of.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>By removing both entries above from the whitelist
and keeping the blacklist rule, you would be changing the strategy only for the
<A href="mailto:*@domain.com">*@domain.com</A> , as now everyone but "test"
would be required to pass your rules before it is delivered. As stands above,
everyone but "test" automatically passes.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Clear? or more confusing?</FONT></DIV>

rules</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>Hi guys,<BR>Im trying to simulate the whitelist and blacklist
rules for my MS. I tried configuring my Is Definitely Not a Spam with this
whitelist.rules.
<BR><BR>From: <A
href="mailto:test@domain.com">test@domain.com</A>
no<BR>From:
<A
href="mailto:allow@domain.com">allow@domain.com</A>
yes<BR>From:
default
no<BR><BR>This should result to tagging the sender <A
href="mailto:test@domain.com">test@domain.com</A> as Spam. But it is not
successful. What seems to be lacking here ?<BR><BR>tia<BR>
