When Declude scans multiple hops, what happens if different hops fail different tests? Is the weight cumulative over the hops, or does Declude find the most offensive hop, and report that weight?

It adds up the weights for each hop.


Also, when declude scans multiple hops, if it gets to the actual source IP, wouldn't almost every e-mail fail the dial up tests? Most messages originate from a dial up, cable modem, dsl, etc., and then go to the dial up provider's mail server, then to the destination.

For this, Declude JunkMail has code built in to bypass tests with "DUL" or "DYNA" in the name.


I have a need to scan multiple hops, but not every e-mail will take the extra hops. Will me scanning for the additional hops make Declude scan too deep in the headers to cause other mail to fail?

It shouldn't. However, it does take a bit more resources (sending DNS packets, and waiting for the results).


I have a program that will gather mail from my other various mail accounts (various providers) and will forward it to my server running declude. The problem is that this adds 2 hops to the message. (My machine downloads it, sends it to my providers smtp server, the providers server sends its it to the server running declude). The places that I collect mail from do not have a way to forward messages, so I am forced to collect them and pass them on to declude.

Anyone have any better ideas how to handle this?

If the Received: headers include IP addresses, you can use the IPBYPASS option. By adding a line "IPBYPASS 192.0.2.25" to the \IMail\Declude\global.cfg file, Declude JunkMail will automatically skip over that IP. This works with Declude JunkMail Pro.
