           Summary: With 3.1.7 'whitelist_from_rcvd' in local.cf no longer
                    adding -100
           Product: Spamassassin
           Version: 3.1.7
          Platform: Sun
        OS/Version: Solaris
            Status: NEW
          Severity: major
          Priority: P1
         Component: spamc/spamd
        AssignedTo: dev@spamassassin.apache.org
        ReportedBy: paul.mcilfatrick@bt.com


The following line:

whitelist_from_rcvd phones@xxx.yyy.zzz xxx.yyy.zzz

in our local.cf file was working OK in version SpamAssassin 3.1.4 with the score
of e-mails to phones@xxx.yyy.zzz being reduced by -100.

Yesterday, I used Cpan to upgrade to 3.1.7 and now the score of e-mails to
phones@xxx.yyy.zzz are no longer being reduced by -100!

I ran spamassassin -D --lint and it reported that the local.cf file was being
read OK.

Is the local.cf no longer being parsed correctly?

Generally speaking, issues like these should first be sent to the users@ list.

You also don't provide enough information to answer your question.  Please
attach a non-modified message along with a non-modified config file showing the
whitelist entry.

To add to Theo's comment "Please attach...", please only do that _after_ you
have asked about this on the users list and dealt with what is most likely a
misconfiguration problem that happened during the upgrade.

By the way, I would suggest looking at how you have defined trusted and internal
networks as described on the wiki at
http://wiki.apache.org/spamassassin/TrustPath as one of the symptoms listed
there is whitelist_from_recvd not working.

I'm closing this bug as INVALID to indicate that it most likely is a
configuration problem and not a SpamAssassin bug. However, once you track down
the cause using the wiki and people on the users mailing list, if it is a result
of a bug in SpamAssassin or a bug in the 3.1.7 upgrade procedure, please feel
free to reopen this bug and let us know.

Resolved the issue.

Unknown to us our machines were changed from using a locally controlled DNS
server to use a new company DNS server. After a lot of investgation we found out
that the new DNS server had been set up to NOT support reverse DNS lookup which
of course meant that that SpamAssassin's whitelist_from_rcvd stopped working!

Sorry for raising this bug in error.
