Title: LDAP whitelist
Post by: si_blakely on May 13, 2004, 08:00:00 AM

I use abook to maintain an LDAP address book. I was suddenly inspired to write this script, which adds all the e-mail addresses in my LDAP directory into the SpamAssassin config as a whitelist. It does not affect the server-manager panel whitelist in any way.

This script should be added to /etc/cron.daily.
Update the baseDN for your system to make sure it works. YMMV

   rm -f 60ldap_whitelist

I recently discovered some local user messages being tagged as spam when they're not really...  SA is set to a sensitivity of two because of the amount of junk we receive...

This will be very useful!

Has anyone done something similar to this in order to whitelist pseudonym's on the SME?

Some of my users prefer to use a pseudonym for their email rather than their account name, and I'd like to whitelist the pseudonym's as well...


Thanks.
