There are certain domains on my server that I do not want MailScanner to scan AT ALL, regardless of any default settings in the cPanel or WHM front-end. How do I set this up?

1. Create a plain text file in /usr/mailscanner/etc/rules/ called scan.messages.rules

2. Put the below lines in that file and save the file. Replace domain.com with the domain you want to disable scanning for.

FromOrTo:  *@domain.com  no
FromOrTo:  default   yes

Add a line like the domain.com line above for any other domains you do NOT want to have ANY scanning - this includes virus, spam, phishing, dangerous html, and file attachment scanning.

If you want to whitelist incoming mail from a particular domain, you can use a line like this:

From:  *@domain.com  no

3. Go to WHM > Plugins > ConfigServer MailScanner FE > and click the button that says "MailScanner Configuration". Set "Scan Messages = " to "%rules-dir%/scan.messages.rules" (without the quotes) and click Change.
