IPs in trusted_networks get a pass from blacklist lookups, but otherwise are scored normally. If you want whitelisting, take a look at the various whitelist_from_* options. $ man Mail::SpamAssassin::Conf If you really want to simply let through all mail from a specific IP, the simplest way is probably at the MTA. Don't send those messages to SA in the first place...problem solved. -- Bowie
