Re: [Declude.JunkMail] Multiple Actions/ExternalPlus/Sniffer

[Pete McNeil]

I'm not sure I'm following you... but I think what you might need is an 
additional license. Suppose you create one rulebase that will contain only 
your white rules. Then leave the normal sniffer rulebase alone. The small 
rulebase with the white rules will be so small as to require nearly no 
additional processing power. You would have your white rules, and you would 
retain any black rules that matched as well.

An alternative while still using a single rulebase is to parse the log file 
for the details with an additional utility. Message Sniffer can only return 
a single numeric result, but it records all of the rules that matched.

Hope this helps,

Ok, I'll answer my own question.  In thinking about this more, this
isn't going to work.
If I recode my rule base to return a 1 instead of 0 on whitelist, then
the original sniffer test will interpret the 1 as a spam, then the
externalplus test will interpret the 1 as whitelist and override the
sniffer external test.
So, I still lose the original reason for sniffer failure since sniffer
will always be returning a 1, right?
