I am running SpamAssassin 3.1.4 on a windows mail server, the local.cf file is in /perl/site/etc/mail/spamassassin
This is what it looks like: ######################################################################## # This is the right place to customize your installation of SpamAssassin. # # See 'perldoc Mail::SpamAssassin::Conf' for details of what can be # tweaked. # # Only a small subset of options are listed below # ########################################################################### # Add *****SPAM***** to the Subject header of spam e-mails # rewrite_header Subject [SPAM] # Save spam messages as a message/rfc822 MIME attachment instead of # modifying the original message (0: off, 2: use text/plain instead) # report_safe 1 # Set which networks or hosts are considered 'trusted' by your mail # server (i.e. not spammers) # trusted_networks 205.158.155.180 trusted_networks 205.158.155.52 trusted_networks 205.158.154.52 trusted_networks 205.158.154.181 trusted_networks 205.158.154.180 #disable DNSBLs, can't control well enough skip_rbl_checks 1 # Set file-locking method (flock is not safe over NFS, but is faster) # # lock_method flock # Set the threshold at which a message is considered spam (default: 5.0) # required_score 5.0 # Use Bayesian classifier (default: 1) # # use_bayes 1 # Bayesian classifier auto-learning (default: 1) # # bayes_auto_learn 1 # Set headers which may provide inappropriate cues to the Bayesian # classifier # # bayes_ignore_header X-Bogosity # bayes_ignore_header X-Spam-Flag # bayes_ignore_header X-Spam-Status ############################################################## As you can see I have added about 6 mailservers as "trusted" and disabled rbl checking or so I thought. messages from those mail servers (the trusted ones) are still getting bounced for being on a black list. Since spamassassin is running as an exe and is envoked everytime mail is delivered it is loading the new config, I have confirmed that by changing the required_score and I see that change immediatly. For some reason Ican't whitelist or disable rbl checking. Am I forgetting something or doing some thing wrong?
