I would like to see a feature that automatically adds the sender address of any message that successfully passes the spam fiters to a whitelist. In addition, sender addreses from spam mails moved to mailgood must be added to the whitelist too.
The administrator must be able to review and manually remove entries from this whitelist. In addition a periodically running mechanismn must automatically remove addresses from the whitelist that are found in a deny rule.
What does it solve: I have a situation where 77% of all messages are spam and due to the nature of the business, spam is very difficult to detect (even when reviewed manually). I regularerly found two or three false positives per day. Doing some research I found out that in most cases the first message from a specific sender passed the spam filters while one ore more of the succeeding messages did not.
Possible workaround: a periodically running agent/server task scanning mail boxes for sender addresses and adding the addresses to the white list.
