I have a friend whose email address was harvested, so I get spam that looks like its from him, but sometimes the messages really are from him; how can I make the antispam program tell the difference?
Rather than putting his address in your Blocked Senders list–whereby you would not receive any messages from that address–your best bet would be to select the Cautious policy–“certain and likely spam sent to quarantine; no messages deleted”–for your personal spam policy. You can then release to your inbox any messages from his address that appear legitimate.
