Dear all,

I would like to permanently unban an IP class like 192.168.*.*, but with DoNotAddIPToHoneypot, it can't use wildcard...(I've try, it doesn't work)

How to make it possible ?

Thank you

Just fyi, I myself attempted the hack today, and it didn't appear to work on version 2.07.1.532 (Unregistered).

Like you said, it's an untested and unsupported technique, so I'm not disappointed.  I'm just curious if the functionality has changed in more recent versions of SpamFilter.

Thanks,
Stephen

Well, I think that the most efficient way to whitelist such an ip range would be to use the Excluded Domains / IPs white list tab.

But really, what shade is trying to do is not to whitelist a range of ips.. but to prevent them from being blacklisted - so that some email from the domain can get through - even if it's blacklisted by MAPS, honeypot, or ip cache.  Sounds a little odd, but the critical difference is that... instead of treating 100% of the email from the i.p. range to be legitiimiate (whitelisted), to instead scrutinize the mail based on all filters except for those that block based on the i.p.  By adding i.p. to the DoNotAddIPToHoneypot list, you can still block email from that i.p. on a case-by-case basis, through filters like keywords, bayesian, from/to email addresses, SURBL matches, etc.
