Topic: Whitelist not working

[jsheets]

I have created a  whitelist for a listserv that I subscribe to that is getting blocked as spam.  I checked the logs when the messages stopped coming and notice that for some reason the messages from the listserv went from having a spam score of 0 to a spam score of 11 and started getting blocked.  I added the listserv domain to the database and it appears to be correct but I am still not receiving emails from the list.  Below is the result of db spamassassin show.

[root@mail ~]# db spamassassin show
wbl.global=list
    *555ins.info=Black
    *list.em.ohio.gov=White
wbl.global_to=list

I used the following commands to add the entries to the db:

db spamassassin setprop wbl.global *list.em.ohio.gov White
expand-template /etc/mail/spamassassin/local.cf
svc -t /service/spamd/

If anybody has any ideas I would appreciate it.  Thanks!

You need to get an "@" sign into the mix.

So maybe try

*@list.em.ohio.gov White

the rest of your commands are on the money.

I found that there is not working of the "white list" in the webmail filter option.
Even I add the sender e-mail address in "white list"; the filter also move it to "junkmail" folder.

skm. The white list in webmail is not connected to the white list in spamassassin in any way.

Try this for server-manager control of spam assassin white and blacklist.

The blacklist in webmail is a filter for horde, and is a user interface - ie filtering here only works on messages already received (and in this case filtered by spam assassin).

The server-manager module in the post above will give you nice control over the spam assassin (before mail is delivered to end users).

Enjoy, and again thanks to Darrell for his great work.
