Hi Daryl,
 
Thank you for the response however what you are talking about is a little over where I am at.

A) This happens when you're using the same SMTP service for both MSA and
MTA/MX functions and don't take measures to notify SpamAssassin who your
MSA clients are.
 
2: should be self explanatory, see description:

[My Replies]
A) Since I am unsure what MSA is I did some checking up.  How do I know if I am set up for MSA?
I am using Smartermail.  I am equally unsure of what MTA is.  I know what the MX Records are sort of.
How do I know if I even have MSA clients?
We have a dedicated server.
We only have about 10 email addresses on 1 domain name and they are all POP3 and SMTP.
We have 1 email address on another domain.
 
B) I read that page but it didn't make any sense to me.  I can put the trusted network up but how do I know what everyone's IP addresses are or should I put our own mail server IP?
Trusted_networks 10.222.111/24
 
Thanks,
 
Wayne
