True. The IPs I'd like to remove from RBL checks do not belong to us.

The IPs are not my own users.

The situation is about Hotmail. Yesterday a customer told me he was having
problems between his corporative account and Hotmail, the customers of my
customer were unable to contact him.

I noticed at that time 65.55.111.100 was part of SORBS BL.

65.55.111.100 is blu0-omc2-s25.blu0.hotmail.com, part of their "smtp farm".

I told my customer that he needed to tell HIS customers that they need to
tell Hotmail that they are listed in SORBS. This information is hard to
understand for a person who pays to get email support :)

Customer asked "can you white-list them temporarly ?"

We have a firewall with a network setup which allow me to bypass RBL +
SpamAssassin easily. We did this with most of Hotmail's IPs until we started
receiving spam from valid Hotmail accounts.

I do not want to let Hotmail completely white listed, my idea was to skip
RBL checks and keep other checks in place.

Checking against Received headers is maybe a good idea, but I am curious if
you have in mind a better solution :)

I need help to write the rules.

Sorry I do not understand this one, I'm not very familiar with SA rules yet
but still learning :)
