Hello,

I have Proxmox Mail Gateway 7.3-8. This server receives important notifications from sender but they are captured as spam.
I added What object "Whitelisted From" with this rule:

Also tried as value safetyeasy@ab-cube.com and some others but nothing works, the emails always end in spam quarantine.
The email headers are:


It is not reliable to whitelist by envelope from as it is mailing list.
Any idea how to whitelist by From: header?
 
Any idea how to whitelist by From: header?
add it as a 'Match Field' What object

The Who objects always match the envelope addresses - not the header-values

I hope this explains it!
 
It is added in What objects as mentioned in opening post. But does not work.

Do I read this correct - you have the from object and the what-object in the same rule?
this is not how this works - the rule should match only mails that match both the from (envelope) and the what (from-header)

- create 2 rules - one with the from object and your desired action and a separate one with the what object and your desired action...

i hope this helps!
