About the Spamfilter<br />

Advanced tab<br />

This tab allows you to manually configure whitelist entries for the<br />

internal or external (Internet) burbs using the File Editor. To configure<br />

a whitelist for the internal burb, select Edit Internal Burb Whitelist. To<br />

configure the external (Internet) burb, select Edit Internet Burb Whitelist.<br />

The appropriate whitelist.cfg file opens for editing.<br />

There are two types <strong>of</strong> whitelist entries that can be added to this file:<br />

Host—This type <strong>of</strong> whitelist entry applies to any kind <strong>of</strong> IP address<br />

or domain name. If a DNS name is provided, then whitelist<br />

effectiveness is contingent on DNS being properly enabled and set<br />

up on the system on which Authority is installed. IP subclasses and<br />

DNS subdomains are supported. The following examples display<br />

the basic structure for a host entry:<br />

type = host; address = [1.2.3.4]<br />

type = host; address = [192.168.]<br />

type = host; address = [mx1.somecompany.com]<br />

type = host; address = [.gov]<br />

Header—This type <strong>of</strong> whitelist entry effectively matches any<br />

substring or regular expression against the specified header field.<br />

The following examples display the basic structure for a host<br />

entry:<br />

type = header; header = [From]; value = [@.*gov>];<br />

type = header; header = [From]; value = [@cloudmark.com];<br />

When you are finished modifying the whitelist.cfg file, select File -><br />

Save to save your changes and then select File -> Exit to return to the<br />

Spamfilter Advanced tab.

Hooray! Your file is uploaded and ready to be published.
