Hi All: My email address is on an auto-forward list for an email address at Microsoft's hosted Exchange service (outlook.com). So whenever email is sent to "admin@[client].com" it should forward to me along with a bunch of other people.


When I send an email to "admin@[client].com", it is getting rejected by ASSP, I think because the "mailfrom" is my own email address:

Jun-15-12 08:33:12 33977-53623 [SpoofedSender] 216.32.181.181 <aklist_eims@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> to: aklist_eims@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [spam found][blocked] -- No Spoofing Allowed 'aklist_eims@xxxxxxxxxxxxx' in 'mailfrom' -- [followup] -> discarded/33977-53623.eml;

Is the best way to handle this to add my email address to "Don't do Spoofing Check for these Addresses/Domains"?

Or will that open the floodgates for that email address?
