I completely agree with your opinion about the open proxy biz. I'll see if we can get them to take care of that on their end. In the meantime, I've been asked to get these particular emails through to us without a spam tag :) I'm just having trouble accomplishing that. (and have had to fight to keep using rbls) thanks tho for explaining the unblacklist deal, i misunderstood that.
Whitelisting would be fine with me, but when i tried that (first thing i tried), it still got a spam tag. negative score, but gets tagged because of the rbl. I dont know if there is a rule for tagging or not based on rbl. ?? I would go for that if that were my only option. (i like that monkeys tags it if they sneak one under the radar). thanks! jennifer > what am i doing wrong here?

If I'm reading the man page for Mail:SpamAssassin::Conf correctly, unblacklist_from only works if you've previously manually blacklisted an entity or network, such as: blacklist_from [EMAIL PROTECTED] blacklist_from [EMAIL PROTECTED] unblacklist_from [EMAIL PROTECTED] unblacklist_from [EMAIL PROTECTED] unblacklist_from should have no effect on entries in DNSBLs like proxies.relays.monkeys.com. The longer-term (and hence, more difficult) solution is to help the admin of the machine listed in proxies.relays.monkeys.com secure their open proxy so they are no longer (justifiably) blacklisted. Whitelisting systems listed in open proxy DNSBLs should be a temporary triage-style fix until the proxy can be locked down. -- Bob ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by:ThinkGeek Welcome to geek heaven. http://thinkgeek.com/sf _______________________________________________ Spamassassin-talk mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/spamassassin-talk ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by:ThinkGeek Welcome to geek heaven. http://thinkgeek.com/sf _______________________________________________ Spamassassin-talk mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/spamassassin-talk
