SafeLink Whitelisting

Hi All,

The recent thread on "URL re-writing in emails", got me to thinking of a slightly different but related question.

For those that are going the URL re-write in email route, what whitelisting and or blacklisting have you put in place, 
if any?

Some considerations we've considered:

  *   Whitelisting all of the University's namespace (buffalo.edu).
  *   Do the above whitelisting but then add certain high-risk domain names back into a blacklist

I'm starting a new thread so as not to hijack the other.

Thanks for any thoughts or insights you may have!
