> Comprende? Ahaa, yes I see. I got sucked into thinking the _from part was really about From: I'd hazzard a guess that many people have. Maybe time to include something indicating it isn't particularly related to actual From field but `From' in the sense that it comes `From' somewhere. It might also be cogent to note that `whitelist_to' *IS* directly related to the actual To: (and Cc) field. So again it seems almost gauranteed that whitelist_from will be missunderstood. Note further that whitelist_to, it seems then, would not be usefull for the spam_a lists since it never appears in To: and may or may not appear in Cc: _______________________________________________________________ Don't miss the 2002 Sprint PCS Application Developer's Conference August 25-28 in Las Vegas -- http://devcon.sprintpcs.com/adp/index.cfm _______________________________________________ Spamassassin-talk mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/spamassassin-talk
