No, it effects how SpamAssassin regards Received lines added by those IPs. (ie, it causes SpamAssassin to trust that the Received line is not forged) You also might want to have a peek at: http://wiki.apache.org/spamassassin/TrustedRelays and http://wiki.apache.org/spamassassin/TrustPath > spamassassin does not work for any ip that i put here, even those ips of does not work? > my other servers are not trusted. > It seems that spamassassin is simply not > even looking at the trusted network ips ie it is disabled due to some > reason Or it could be that you are expecting trusted networks to act as a whitelist, which is not its function. > could you please help. Perhaps easiest way: make a local dns whitelist of IPs to which you feel your setup should apply a negative score, and then add some nice net rules to go along with it. Also, you might want to have a look at: whitelist_from_rcvd , which is documented here: http://spamassassin.apache.org/full/3.1.x/doc/Mail_SpamAssassin_Conf.html#whitelist_and_blacklist_options Short version: Say your client is example.com and uses mail.example.com, you could do: whitelist_from_rcvd *@example.com mail.example.com to give negative points to mail from example.com that you receive from mail.example.com.
