In your scenario, it sounds very much like you're already running procmail. In this case, the best method is to tell procmail not to call spamc/spamassassin if mail is from one of those lists. For example, my own .procmailrc looks like this: :0fw:spamassassin.lock * !^Subject: .*SAtalk * !^Subject: .*Razor-users | spamc The overhead of procmail is very much lower than the overhead of spamassassin or spamc/spamd.
