Re: Filter

[Elton <ehd@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Filtering "Header To: *sales@*" is easy.

I'm not aware of a way to reference fields/variables in a filter.  You can do explicit filtering of "Header To:mydomain@xxxxxxxxxxxx", assuming you know the exact address you want to filter.   It would be neat if Post.Office allowed us to reference Header fields/variables, ie: "from_user = from_host", or "from_user = from_user", or from_address = from_address, or to_host <> localhost, etc., etc., to handle cases of such SPAM patterns.

I get a bunch of fake address SPAM ie: "To: ehd@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx From: ehd@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"; if you know the target name you can simply do FILTER: "Header From: *ehd@* AND Header To: *ehd@*, but you must know the explicit name.

However a few good "body" filters will catch most of the SPAM you don't get with "source", "destination" and "header" filters -- that's why body filters in Post.Office are so powerful.
