Disable logging - Whitelist functionality

[asteddy <as...@tin.it>]

Hello,
I would like to know if I can disable spamassassin logging because I think it's slowing down. 
I would also know if there is a way to say to spamassassin that whitelisted addresses don't need to pass all other rules. 
If there was already a thred talking about these arguments please tell me where I can find it because I haven't found a searching engine in the mail archive and I have subscribed the list only now.
Thank you in advance.

I'm having my whitelist in a separate file, one address a row. Then I'm using maildrop so that it does not do spamassassin at all for those whitelisted sender addresses.

This snippet makes a lookup in the file and sets variable SCAN_SPAM to false it a match is found.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

SCAN_SPAM=1


if ( /^From:\s*(.*)/ && lookup( $MATCH1, "/usr/etc/maildrop_sender_whitelist", "D" ))
{
    xfilter "reformail -a'X-Whitelisted: $MATCH1 in /usr/etc/maildrop_sender_whitelist'"
    SCAN_SPAM=0
}

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I have other checks too, for example if the mail looks like a reply to spam which was sent in my name and stuff like that.

In the end of /etc/maildroprc is call spamassassin  if it looks like the spam should checked.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

if ( $SCAN_SPAM > 0 )
{
        xfilter "spamc -H -x -d spamd -u spam"
}
else
{
        xfilter "reformail -a'X-Whitelisted: on pena because some reason earlier in /etc/maildroprc'"
}
