Since im getting some spam mails, i just want to block certain sender. If thats the case then i would just add it on the blacklilst file.
Is this correct ?<br> <br> <div><font face="Arial" size="2">In blacklist file</font></div> <div><font face="Arial" size="2">FromOrTo: <a href="mailto:test@domain.com">test@domain.com</a> yes # blacklist this sender<br> </font></div> FromOrTo: default no >>> ? Do i have to put these on the last line of my blacklist.rules ???<br> <br> tia<br> <br> <br><p>
