Default Re: [AMaViS-user] SA whitelist usage

So, if I got you right
If I want to whitelist_from_rcvd to work for users of my own server I should
delist it from trusted_networks and internal_networks (i.e. 127/8 should
never be included)?
This way the first untrusted server would be my own, right?

# Internal
clear_internal_networks
internal_networks 127/8 IP_of_first_mail_relay IP_of_second_mail_relay
# Trusted
clear_trusted_networks
trusted_networks 127/8 IP_of_first_mail_relay IP_of_second_mail_relay

Becomes:

# Internal
clear_internal_networks
internal_networks IP_of_first_mail_relay IP_of_second_mail_relay
# Trusted
clear_trusted_networks
trusted_networks IP_of_first_mail_relay IP_of_second_mail_relay

and now:
whitelist_from_rcvd user@mydomain.net.il mydomain.net.il


Would work as it should?

Actually I think the sender would be retrieved from a different
header. The thing is, whitelist_from_rcvd might be useful in a
situation where the mail comes from an organization that hosts their
own servers. It would be much much less useful to whitelist a sender
from a known source of spam such as rr.com or comcast or yahoo for
example. It would also be of limited use if the sender moves from ISP
to ISP (a mobile user). Then for sure it would not work 'all the
time'.
