Re: [vps-mail] Spoofed Return-Path:



I've been playing with this as well - the solution/next step that i've found is to work with the whitelist_from_rcvd test in your local.cf file.

e.g. this is what I have:

whitelist_from *@iwbyte.com
whitelist_from_rcvd *@iwbyte.com iwbyte.com

It means that whitelist anything from iwbyte.com, BUT make sure that anything you are going to whitelist as being from iwbyte.com should also have iwbyte.com on the RECIEVED line.

I haven't tested it much - i just set it up and went to fight other fires, so I don't know if it works at all.

My next question to the list or SA lists was going to be - how can we adjust the value for WHITELIST_FROM and make it -20 intsead of -100 (since you can see in the list below that a -20 would have resulted in almost a positive spam result below)

Hello,

I've been having a problem with spam getting past SA due to the
USER_IN_WHITELIST score. Can someone help to enlighten me as to why this
happens and how I can plug this hole?

Here's a sample header:
