I have a file, local-names.cf, in the /etc/mail/spamassassin directory which is a list of addresses I need to whitelist. It seems to work, except for one sender. Here is the line from the .cf file:
whitelist_from LABONE.com
This never triggers when I receive mail with a header that looks like the one below. I have seen emails with all caps like the line above, I have also seen emails with LabOne.com or labone.com in the header. I have tried all of these variations and it really looks like my local-names.cf file is being ignored. Except that other emails from other domains have spam headers that say the whitelist rule triggered just like it should. Any ideas on where to look?
I'd suggest looking at man Mail::SpamAssassin::Conf, section on whitelist_from
If you want to match [EMAIL PROTECTED] you need to put that in your whitelist_from. Otherwise, it should only match mail that is literally "From: labone.com"
There's no implicit sub-string matching in whitelist_from that I'm aware of. You need to insert file-glob style wildcards where you need them.
