Whitelist not working...
Hello,
In an attempt to always allow emails from particular domains, I have added
the following lines into "/etc/spamassassin/local.cf":
def_whitelist_from_rcvd *@inmac.co.uk inmac.co.uk
def_whitelist_from_rcvd *@Inmac.co.uk Inmac.co.uk
def_whitelist_from_rcvd *@domain.co.jp domain.co.jp
But, they are being ignored. Any ideas?
Also, are they case sensitive? i.e. if I always allow *@inmac.co.uk will it
block *@Inmac.co.uk as well?
Thanks in advance,
Richard.

Hello,
Here are the headers of one of the emails from a receipient in the
whitelist. I have replaced sensitive information with <HIDDEN> and @ symbols
with [at] in case this gets archived anywhere.

What does one of the Received: headers look like? My guess is if you're having
problems with them matching it's the rcvd part.
Either that or the From: is in a non-matching format, ie:
richard@server.inmac.co.uk

They are case insensitive.
