I've also just recently enabled these lists in SA so am still in the very early stages of testing. I initially did get one FP hit against the whitelist (spam message sent through an ISP smtp server in the whitelist)

Can you let us know what that IP is please? Then Marc can explain how it managed to get on the whitelist. No ISP SMTP server should be in a whitelist imho...

That really depends on the blacklist's policy. I think Marc wants to
eliminate FPs this way - an ISP can do whatever against spam, still
customers can manage to send some. Botnets and lame organizations' servers
cause much more harm that most if ISPs...

I just think that a whitelist entry should be an absolute "no spam comes from here unless something goes tits up" type entry, and all hosts on it should be manually checked...

I started querying the whitelist from spamassassin 4 hours ago. I don't have a high volume of mail. SpamAssassin has only scanned 273 messages since then, yet the hostkarma whitelist has already incorrectly tagged 2 of that small sample of mail:

1.) May 20 13:34:34 haven spamd[4500]: spamd: result: Y 21 - BAYES_99,DCC_CHECK,DIGEST_MULTIPLE,HTML_IMAGE_RATIO_02,HTML_MESSAGE,MIME_QP_LONG_LINE,PYZOR_CHECK,RCVD_IN_JMF_W,SPF_PASS,URIBL_BLACK,URIBL_SBL scantime=7.5,size=25057,user=doug,uid=1003,required_score=5.0,rhost=localhost,raddr=127.0.0.1,rport=/var/run/spamd.sock,mid=<jbsq02c0003f3002000ceunh047...@bp06.net>,bayes=1.000000,autolearn=spam

Which came from: mail.s57.93.bp06.net, 81.252.93.57


I see a lot of trickle (snowshoe?) spam from bp06.net. They are even in my own personal blacklist:

# bp06.net (unsubscribe attempted - still sending)
86.64.210.0/23          REJECT
83.206.208.128/25       REJECT
81.252.93.0/24          REJECT

I don't even bother scoring them, but just outright reject at the smtp level.
