how to completley skip spamassassin check from certain ips
Here is my problem, i have been trying for a few months now and can't get it
to work.
Some emails sent from a certain host that I trust are huge with lots of
url's, etc. They are for debugging purposes. When they come in it seems to
hang spamd. We get a lot of these btw. This is a dual core 3 ghz, 2 gigs ram
so I don't think power is the problem. Is there a way to just have spamd
return if its from a certain IP address. Trusted networks doesn't help,
whitelist doesn't help it still scans the message. If a certain ip sends my
mail server an email I want it to automatically return "not spam" without
testing it.
Is this possible, if not I guess I will have to get into the actual spamd
perl script and hardcode it myself.
thanks
Nick

What about the ShortCircuiting Ruleset? Not sure if it would completely
stop emails from getting chewed on.
The other option would be not sending them to SA. I don't know what MTA
your using, but I know you can setup another postfix instance on the same
server and by configuration you could have the first mail server forward
messages on to that server if they match the criteria. Obviously it's a
complex setup.

Rather than break code, the solution is easier. However you call
SpamAssassin, simply DON'T call spamassassin for messages from that host.

The proper solution is to not pass those messages to SA in the first
place. Leave the SA code alone.
How _exactly_ do you pass messages to SA for scoring? Milter? Procmail?
Amavis? Some other MTA-specific plumbing?

I may have found my solution:
acl_check_data:
accept
hosts = : +relay_from_hosts
If I put that accept clause hopefully it will just accept the mail, without
continuing down to the spam checking. I'll let you know and thanks for the
response!
