How to Whitelist a SORBS Blacklisted Server

[the_griz]

Email from a few machines in networksolutions email service are currently blacklistsed on SORBS. I want to whitelist all email originating from *.networksolutionsemail.com, thus bypassing the SORBS blacklist block.

How would I do this?

I have already tried to:

~zimbra/conf edited the file amavisd.conf.in
entering ....
'networksolutionsemail.com' => -3.0,

saving and then runnning...
zmamavisdctl stop && zmamavisdctl start

However, this did not work.

Please advise.

Would you post the headers from one of the emails please ?

Here is a sample header of one that was able to get through because the SMTP server omr5.networksolutionsemail.com was not blacklisted. However omr10.networksolutionsemail.com is blacklisted along with others.

I'm guessing that you are using SORBS in your MTA-level blacklisting, configured in the Admin GUI. Is that the case?

If so then setting scores in spamassassin won't do anything--you need to create an exception in Postfix. Not sure that will work with Zimbra but you could try googling postfix whitelist. When I did, this is the first result that popped up: How To Whitelist Hosts/IP Addresses In Postfix | HowtoForge - Linux Howtos and Tutorials

If you aren't using MTA-level blacklists then you should at least be able to see the email being accepted by Postfix and then scored by amavisd, by looking in /var/log/zimbra.log.
