Matt,
Are you talking about a whitelist type scoring that "you" generate to get
emails learned as ham or something???
Yes there is a way to do it, yet we don't use Exim....
We are doing the opposite, yet you could use this with negative scoring to
work at and achieve what you desire.
Trial and error eh?
We do it with rbldnsd and a simple custom SA .cf file and score and a local
"zones" in dns
Our /etc/sysconfig/rbldnsd file looks like this
RBLDNSD="dsbl -r/var/lib/rbldns -b 127.0.0.1/530 -4 -e -f \
-l log/rbldnsd.log -s log/statfile.log \
uri.badzone1.local:dnset:work/localfiledir/uri.badzone1file.local.rbldnsd \
"
The .cf file will look like other URI type in 25_uribl.cf
#
###########################################################################
##
#
urirhssub URIBL_BADLOCAL1 uri.badzone1.local. A 2
body URIBL_BADLOCAL1 eval:check_uridnsbl(' URIBL_BADLOCAL1')
describe URIBL_BADLOCAL1 Contains an URL listed in the localuri blacklist
tflags URIBL_BADLOCAL1 net
####################################################################
#
#
#
score URIBL_BADLOCAL1 0 4 0 4
This is scored to ADD score for flagging or "rejection" type purposes.
It appears that you would want to do it negatively.
Don't forget you will want to add the zones to your dns...
zone "uri.badzone1.local" in {
type forward;
forward first;
forwarders { 127.0.0.1 port 530; };
};
We recently implemented because of a new system being testing out there.
:-)
There are other working examples in the 25_uribl.cf file from SA on your
server
Just remember, it appears you will want negative scores for a whitelist type
effect.
Hope this helps or gives one type of direction
There are probably easier ways with Exim or SA
