SA-Exim has its own mailing list where Marc Mercury can be found and
others are dedicated SA-Exim users.
SpamAssassin has its own mailing list, ditto w.r.t. dedicated users..
I whitelist mailing lists (including this one :) from within SA
(local.cf) using Perl header-meta rules. I can't use SA's blacklist or
whitelist functions for mailing lists. Rule for the Exim list:
header __EXIMLIST_SUBSC List-Subscribe =~
/\<http:\/\/www\.exim\.org\/mailman\/listinfo\/exim-users\>/i
header __EXIMLIST_ID List-Id =~ /A\ user\ list\ for\ the exim\ MTA\
\<exim-users\.exim\.org\>/i
meta EXIM_LIST (__EXIMLIST_SUBSC && __EXIMLIST_ID)
describe EXIM_LIST SystemAddition: Whitelist Exim mailing list
score EXIM_LIST -100.0
NB! These lines may get folded by your MUA. The lines beginning "header,
header, meta, describe and score" should each be one single line.
SA has its own rules defining "meta" and what the underscores mean,
combining rules, etc.
Matt Kettler on the SA list has written a fine though basic HOWTO for
writing Perl regexps.
