Could you explain to a newbie what the format is of the C:\Imail\Declude\SpamDomains.txt file is and what the entries mean? Looking back through the archives, I see some lines with single entries and others with 2 entries per line. Like:

.aol.com
@aol.com   .aol.com

The first column is text that must appear in the return address of the E-mail (from the X-Declude-Sender: header) header in order for that line to be used. If there is a match there, then the reverse DNS entry must contain either the text from the first column or the second column.


So ".aol.com" would not do much, as most AOL E-mail comes from "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" (which doesn't contain ".aol.com"). However, E-mail from "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" would need to come from an IP with a reverse DNS entry containing ".aol.com".

The "@aol.com .aol.com" line would require that any E-mail from @aol.com have a reverse DNS entry with either "@aol.com" or ".aol.com" in it (note that a reverse DNS entry won't have "@aol.com" in it, so it essentially would require the reverse DNS entry to contain ".aol.com").
