I'm trying to make sure email from ebay is legit. I received an email from ebay today with the following headers:

Received: from mxsmfpool02.ebay.com ([66.135.209.199] helo=mxsmfpool01.ebay.com)

And I figured the following SA rules would guarantee passage:

whitelist_from_rcvd [EMAIL PROTECTED] sjc2bat11.sjc.ebay.com
whitelist_from_rcvd [EMAIL PROTECTED] mxsmfpool02.ebay.com
whitelist_from_rcvd [EMAIL PROTECTED] mxsmfpool01.ebay.com
whitelist_from_rcvd [EMAIL PROTECTED] ebay.com
whitelist_from_rcvd [EMAIL PROTECTED] emarsys.net

trusted_networks 192.168/16
trusted_networks 69.89.22.106
trusted_networks 68.231.250/8
internal_networks 192.168/16
internal_networks 69.89.22.106
internal_networks 68.231.250/8

But alas, it does not work--I'm still not able to whitelist this message. I realize that with this route, I would have to whitelist every one of ebay's outgoing mail servers (right???), or is there a better way? In concept, this seems like a great way to ensure one does not get spoofed emails, but gosh, it sure is hard to set up the rules for it. Unless I'm missing something simple....
