Hi Again,
Sorry to be rather obtuse about this but I tried to do this and screwed it
up according to the error messages I was getting in my maillog.

The e-mail is being bounced because of a particular section in my
mimedefang-filter, so
I'm pretty sure I want to do this whitelisting using Mimedefang, not
spamassassin.

Do I just put this at the very top of /etc/mail/mimedefang-filter ??
> At the top of filter_recipient:
I don't have a section in /etc/mail/mimedefang-filter called
filter_recipient.
If posting my mimedefang-filter would help any I'ld be glad to do so.
