Topic: Spamassassin: managing the whitelist [Solved]

[Frank VB]

On my SME 7.1.3. server I have a panel in the Server manager called "E-mail WBL" (it's in the Configuration section). On this panel there is a button labelled "ACCEPT". If I click on this button I get a page where I can add a domain/e-mail address in the "spamassassin whitelist_from" textbox below.

My question: if I have to add more than one entry in this textbox, how do I separate the entries? Do I separate them with a comma (or other delimiter), such as in:

*@domain1.com, *@domain2.com

or do I put them on two separate lines:

*@domain1.com
*@domain2.com

This may sound like a stupid question, but I've searched the FAQ's, manuals and forum and haven't found an answer (yet).

On the same topic: Could anyone clearly explain what the difference is between the "spamassassin whitelist_from" and "qpsmtpd whitelistsenders" list? Should I add addresses/domains to both lists, or to only one of them?

Thanks!

What contrib gave you those panels ?

I put my lists in separate lines.

One deals with how the message is processed by the mail system and the other the spamassassin application

What contrib gave you those panels ?

Thank you for the answer, Stuntshell! It works. And yes, it's the smeserver-wbl contrib from Darrell May, version 0.0.1-a8.

Hi Shawnbishop,

the command you are looking for is:

db spamassassin setprop wbl.global *@domain.com Black

You could create a text file with all the email addresses (one per line) to be black-listed and then create a small script to parse the text file and black-list its contents.  Do not forget to add/type the following either at the end of your script or after you have finished entering the bad emails:

expand-template /etc/mail/spamassassin/local.cf
svc -t /service/spamd/

to see your handywork:

db spamassassin show

Hope this helps
