Wow, I had a feeling I was opening a can of worms here. This is one area where I really feel the SA documentation could benefit by having some real world examples.
Right now I am just going with the one internal_networks set to the ip of my SA server. I'm not setting any trusted_networks. I figure there's no harm in not trusting anyone, right? Just a few extra CPU cycles while SA checks out all the IP addresses in the email. Or is there more impact than just that?
