SpamAssassin -is there a way to apply to incoming mails only

[wisp]

Can we apply SpamAssassin for incoming mails alone and not for outgoing mails. Using enterprise version 7.8

Hi,

Version 9.x has an option to "Bypass SpamAssassin checks for authenticated users" under the "SpamAssassin" integration properties.

Just white list your own domain.

Add the following to the local.cf file.

# whitelist Local Server:
whitelist_from *@your.domain

Then all emails from your own domain (outbound) will avoid being filtered.

Paul,

that would work but the fakers who use your @domain.com address will get a free pass I have tried adding some of my domain internal ip addresses under

trusted_networks x.x.x (and have obscure internal addresses e.g. 172.32.32 ).

Otherwise, It would need to be scripted somehow so that there was something in the header that guaranteed it was from your real domain.

I havent worked out how to do that. I thought I saw something about this being added as a feature recently to differentiate your real domain mail from the fakers. I think Ian is hinting at this in his email above this using the internal Spam Assassin that comes with ME.
