There is an ALL_TRUSTED rule. The default score is mild, around -1.5. I use a much higher negative score, because spam that *originates* from a host marked as trusted I want to identify and report (and perhaps reconsider trusted). So a server that relays messagse (that might be spam) and also originates mail (that might be spam) is really probelmatic; they should have separate machines for that, in separate ranges. It should also be possible to have a subclass of trusted_networks that doesn't get included in ALL_TRUSTED.
