I will also check w/ the Exim Forums to see what they say. Do you have any suggestions on what can we from a SA point.

The legit email addresses that I > specified are still getting tagged. 12k whitelisted names?! I would suggest that whitelisting is not the solution you want to be pursuing quite yet. Do you understand _why_ so many of your legitimate correspondents' messages are being scored as "spammy" by SA? Would it be possible to post a few representative messages (raw format, all headers intact) to a website somewhere so that we can get some idea of whether or not the spammy scores are reasonable? Also, be aware that whitelist_from is a last resort as the From: address is trivially easy to forge. > I am still new to SA and Exim.

Well, _I_ can't personally help you with exim, but somebody else may if MTA whitelisting turns out to be an appropriate course of action. -- John Hardin KA7OHZ http://www.impsec.org/~jhardin/ [EMAIL PROTECTED] FALaholic #11174 pgpk -a [EMAIL PROTECTED] key: 0xB8732E79 -- 2D8C 34F4 6411 F507 136C AF76 D822 E6E6 B873 2E79 ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Have you ever seen a more scarily useless group of people running for president? -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] ----------------------------------------------------------------------- 159 days until the Presidential Election
