Greylisting and whitelisting issues

I recently installed EFA and while generally it seems to be working fine, I do have 2 issues I cant seem to figure out...

SpamAssassin keeps marking mail from a valid mailing list as spam. Even if I include the sender to the whitelist, the e-mails still get marked as spam by SpamAssassin every time. I trained a number of these e-mails as HAM, but that also doesn't seem to help.

SpamAssasin returns these scores every time. However when a sender is whitelisted, shouldn't spamassasin just let the e-mail pass??

Code: Select all

Score   Matching Rule   Description
-1.15      AWL            Adjusted score from AWL reputation of From: address
0.00      HTML_MESSAGE         HTML included in message
0.75      KAM_INFOUSMEBIZ      Prevalent use of .info|.us|.me|.me.uk|.biz domains in spam/malware
1.00      KAM_LAZY_DOMAIN_SECURITY      Sending domain does not have any anti-forgery methods
1.10      MIME_HTML_ONLY      Message only has text/html MIME parts
-0.00      RCVD_IN_DNSWL_NONE      Sender listed at http://www.dnswl.org/, no trust
2.00      TO_NO_BRKTS_HTML_ONLY      To: lacks brackets and HTML only
2.30      URI_NO_WWW_INFO_CGI      CGI in .info TLD other than third-level "www"



The second problem is greylisting. A class C addres for facebook has been included in the whitelisted domains:

Code: Select all

facebookmail.com	69.171.232	2016-12-16 13:08:38
However a whole bunch of e-mails is queued from various IP addresses in the whitelisted class c ip:

Code: Select all

notification+kr4mryxbqr5a	facebookmail.com	69.171.232.167 	***@***.**	2016-12-29 07:44:08
notification+kr4mryxbqr5a	facebookmail.com	69.171.232.175 	***@***.**	2016-12-29 07:25:20

notification+zj4oc=j0994y	facebookmail.com	69.171.232.168 	***@***.**	2016-12-29 08:52:16
Why is that?

No, I still receive the mail as spam eventhough it's whitelisted. I deselected a number of newsletters from the site and changed the frequency, so now it's down to only 1 mail per week.

I didn't feel like spending more time on this for only 1 e-mail :)
