Would some one be kind enough to help me write a rule to cover a large range
of IPs?
I want it to filter out 218.0.0.0 to 218.99.255.255, inclusive. In other
words, if it comes from main land China to me, then it is spam. I just do
not know anyone who lives or works in China. I have written to a
manufacturer in Taiwan for some assistance, and that might get routed thru
the mainland, so I do not want to delete it. I can modify the rule later it
I need to open a few holes in it.
Basically I wonder if there is a way to specify a range of IPs. Is there any
way shorten up a list of "any headers contains" list? Is there a practical
limit to how many lines of criteria I can enter in one rule? Or is there a
way to enter something that means 218.0.0.0 to 218.99.255.255, inclusive?
Is there a point at which a long list of criteria slows tings down?
212.100 is Australia, and yes I get some email from there, but it is not all
spam. Yes I take a chance of having an email that inadvertently got routed
thru China moved to the spam folder, but that is why I don't mark it as
read or delete it.
At the moment, the volume of spam that gets thru my ISP's filters is about
40 a week.
What I have so far is:
If
any of the criteria are met:
Any header contains: 218.0.
Any header contains: 218.1.
Any header contains: 218.2.
(etcetera and ending with)
Any header contains: 218.99.
Then
Move message spam
TIA,
Brent
