VBounceRuleset for non-sysadmin?

[Robotech_Master <ro...@eyrie.org>]

I'm not the sysadmin but a user on someone else's machine. This other
machine has SpamAssassin set up, and the VBounceRuleset module loaded, but
does not have the whitelist_bounce_relays line in local.cf that is needed to
make the rule function.

Would it function if I added that line to my user_prefs instead?

Also, I send a lot of my outbound mail via GMail, even though I use my email
on the linux box as my return address so I can pipe all my mail through
spamassassin. If my sysadmin adds a whitelist_bounce_relays line to local.cf,
can I add another with my GMail outgoing server to my user_prefs and have it
work?

Yes.

http://spamassassin.apache.org/full/3.2.x/doc/Mail_SpamAssassin_Plugin_VBounce.html

  "The following options can be used in both site-wide (local.cf) and
  user-specific (user_prefs) configuration files to customize how
  SpamAssassin handles incoming email messages."

Yes. You can have as many whitelist_bounce_relays entries. Just be sure
to add all of those you really do use.
