I hope a viewer can weigh in on this. I don not have a solution for you. Have you looked at any of the examples at http://www.exim.org?

This would let the newsletters through but marked as spam so that users could individually white list the senders in their private whitelist and it wouldn't be my job. Any ideas how to make this add a header line to the email?

It can only blacklist individual senders, but it is incorrectly used as a whitelist.

Mike Hi Jeremy,

It should, but really depends on your exim configuration. cPanel’s configure may be different from your’s so where you place the entries may be slightly different.

Since this last update. I have removed these manual entries. I now use the exim configuration screen in WHM. The best part is that I do not have to re-add anything to the configuration when WHM updates. Yes "Whitelist for trusted mail hosts/ip" yes it does. I put all the entries in my whitelist_senders file in this list and mails flows from those domains into our server. Mike Hi Granville,

They now have access lists where you can click on the edit and add hosts to some but IP addresses to others. If I'm correct this will negate the need to use this fix for those that are updated to this release. The last item in the list is a Whitelist for trusted mail hosts/ip blocks to bypass all smtp checks except recipient verification. I hope this works the same as this particular how-to Thanks for the great work on it.

When WHM goes through a major update like that I like to let the exim configuration tool reset to defaults and reapply this technique. This way I should pick all of the exim.conf changes.
