Scott,
If the IP block is setup up in the Global.cfg like
Netblock 10.10.2.0/22,192.168.1.0/23
Then declude would know the local IP address block and this would make it
automatic.
As far as sending of test e-mails messages, which I both do and have
customer do to test there e-mail. If I were to send a test message to
myself it would be from me@myaddress to me@myaddress coming from an Ip that
is local. Therefore it would pass the test. Both the return address and the
recipient's address match but the senders IP address is listed in the
Global.cfg's netblock . Now for testing from the Internet I would log on to
Hotmail and send from me@hotmail to me@myaddress. This e-mail would pass
for the return address and the recipient's address do not match. I see no
reason for some one to dial in to AOL or another ISP and send a test message
to themselves using outlook.
Scott, I of one would love to have this added as a test I get at least
one call or e-mail per day asking why someone is using their e-mail account.
