If statements in local.cf

[Dean Clapper <dc...@universitycoop.com>]

Is there a way to put an "IF" statement in local.cf?

I'm trying to put in a conditional statement in the local.cf to check the return 
path and the from line.

Most of the time when I see a spoofed name its one or the other not both.  
So what I'm thinking is:

If  domain.com is in "Return-Path:" and "From:" line
	then its good
else
	its spam

Any thoughts on this approach?

thanks
Dean

Can't do that.  If you check the POD, there are a small list of things you can
do with conditionals, none of which are message based (SA version, is plugin
loaded, etc.)

Isn't this just a whitelist?  Otherwise, write subrules and a meta to tie them
together.
