We use the Declude Country Filter which does a good job, but these Russian or

Dear David,
I am curious to know if you have an active Service Agreement with Declude?
Among the hundreds of vendors that I deal with, I found their support to be
one of the best. I seldom wait more than
to support@ and have gotten no response.

I would recommend checking your mail server logs for a
more detailed description of the bounce error. You may find that it is a
DNS or spam blacklist issue. www.dnsstuff.com is a good

I thought that having an SPF record would prevent a
spammer from forging your domain name, but our SPF record did not seem to help
with these odd numeric E-mails which appear to be coming from our
owndomain.
Does anyone have any info about SPF records and if they
really work to combat this
, but you have to both specify that email
for your domains only comes from your mail servers AND use a test in your spam
filtering that checks SPF and pushes fails over your hold limit.

For what it's worth, we have not see a major increase in spam this week
either. Things seem pretty normal.
We did recently upgrade to the Pro version of Declude Junkmail, and now it
is much easier to block mail from certain countries (like .cz .ru etc.) as
well as header and subject content,

Mike,
Our Development Team has looked into this issue and has verified it as a
defect that was introduced in Imail
John Tolmachoff wrote: What is the bug?
The bug in Imail was that the Control Panel for the Mail-to-Fax feature
stopped functioning properly.
We are heavy users of Mail-to-Fax, and the loss of the ability to work with
the fax spool files has made things difficult for us.
