Howdy:
While I applaud the increased control over what mail our server
receives, it would be nice if we had some increased flexibility in
setting up our Mail Blocking Options.
Specifically, more info about the "From:" blocks, and the ability to
use a wildcard character ( "*" ) in the "Block mail from domains" area.
We have a particularly persistent SPAMmer who we can't seem to block
under any circumstances ( see sample headers below my signature ). The
"From:" block doesn't seem to work, though it should have, so more info.
about, or a working "From:" block would be useful. In the examples below
blocking "morgantaylor@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx" in "From:", or even
"help@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx" in "Reply-to:" didn't achieve anything in pre-.b19
versions.
Thus our main hope in some of these cases is to use domain blocking.
Unfortunately, that requires the exact, fully qualified domain, and in
the example SPAM manages you can see they use a different host in every
message. I thought about blocking by IP address, but that also seems to
vary, and I also noticed that the log showed some module being loaded and
a bunch of log entry msgs.
Not sure how the module loading affects performance, and I need less
log entries, not more.
The ability to specify "*domain.com" would greatly help in these
situations.
Thanks for your time and help in these matters.
