Check for 'check_whitelist' on your system. Depending on your
installation, it may not be in your $PATH. On debian linux, I found it
under /usr/share/doc/spamassassin. If you build from source, check under
the tools directory.

It'll do what you want just fine. You'll see the address, number of
messages tracked, and the score average.

OK, I got this:

100.0 (100.0/1) -- videotron.ca|ip=cmd
100.0 (100.0/1) -- yahoo.ca|ip=cmd
100.0 (100.0/1) -- ya.com|ip=cmd

I'm just curious... what does the "|ip=cmd" thing mean?

Thanks for the information, by the way. It's appreciated.

Sincerely,

Gordon E.

I installed SA through/with/from (?) CPAN so the check_whitelist is
located at
/root/.cpan/build/Mail-SpamAssassin-2.63/tools/check_whitelist

Can any user run this? If so should I copy it to /bin/ or /usr/bin or
even ~/bin?

TIA

Any user _with a whitelist_ can, yes. Depending how you've set things
up, that might only be the spamd user though.
