I've been trying to do some tuning of my SmarterMail spam filter settings. I notice that each of my emails have an X-SmarterMail-Spam header that I assume is added by the SmarterMail spam filter. Can anyone explain what the contents of this header mean? Specifically, would I be correct in assuming...

I found a problem where I can not stop spam emails comming from the same email address as the user email address The option "Skip spam filtering on intra-domain email" is disable. The IP is not part of the SMTP Authentication Bypass. Example of the smtp log: 11:16:11 [201.29.240.218][37205106...

If Auto-WhiteListing is enabled, then server places the message on hold, and sends to the MAIL FROM address a confirmation/authorization request, asking the sender to click certain link (with CAPTCHA).
