<DIV>I am running MailScanner 4.75 on x86_64 and Sendmail 8.13. I have a situation where I am relaying e-mail for a trusted mail server with a dynamic IP who connects to my mail scanner via SMTP Auth. I don't have a need for scanning the outbound e-mail from this server but I do need to have the inbound mail scanned. So I figured I would add the domain to scan.messages.rules. </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>From: domain.com no</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>This had the effect of stopping scanning of the mail which was desired but now spam is coming in with the From addresss the same as the To address like: <A href="mailto:xyz@domain.com">xyz@domain.com</A> to <A href="mailto:xyz@domain.com">xyz@domain.com</A>. These messages are not being scanned and getting passed through due to the rule above. Obviously, I didn't think this through correctly and I need a better solution.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>What is required:</DIV>
<DIV>1. Outbound mail from the server with a dynamic IP which authenticates to the mail scanner via SMTP Auth = Not Scanned. I wouldn't care if it just goes from sendmail-in to sendmail-out and not even go through mailscanner but I don't know if that is possible.</DIV>
<DIV>2. All other mail scanned (like normal).</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I know I can't base a rule on the IP address since it is dynamic but I am unsure of any other way to accomplish this. Any thoughts on how I can accomplish this?</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Thanks,</DIV>
