I'm having the same issue.  With employees who work remotely all over the country and others frequently traveling, there's no possible way I can whitelist everyone.

I'm wondering if there's a way to run spamass-milter only on a certain port. For instance, I make sure all our users have our self-signed cert installed and are using smtps on port 465.  So theoretically mail that comes in there is presumed much safer than mail from other MTAs coming in on 25.  Can I limit spamass-milter to only check on 25 and leave 465 alone?

I understand it's not the perfect solution, but unsure how else to get around it.  My users are constantly complaining about their own outbound email being marked as spam.  And it's primarily because of Outlook headers and rDNS, which is unavoidable with mail directly from the employees.

It wasn't possible when this ticket was opened, but you can
do it in 0.2.0.  Add "-i 127.0.0.1" , and locally-sent mail
will not get filtered.  You may also need to add your NIC's
IP address (depending on how the mail gets sent, the milter
might see any of the IPs configured on the machine).  If
this is a mailhub, add "-i 12.34.56/24", or whatever subnet
your internal machines are on.

Ticket 101005 refers to alias expansion and local user
prefs; I think all josh is looking for is a way to disable
scanning on outgoing mail.

Probably not, as the milter API sits at a point where
it's not possible to distinguish between local and non-local
recipients.
Maybe this will change in later versions - see

Is it possible to apply the filter to only mail being
delivered localy?

I ask because when I try to report spam to spamcop via
email, spamassassin mangles some of the messages
before they get there...I'm guessing it has something
to do with the mime defanging it does...
