Inbound rules are applied to messages as they are
delivered to a mailbox. When a user sets a forward the messages are not
delivered so the rules aren't applied.
My understanding is your users are setting a
forward for all of their mail to another account (AOL for example) and never
checking their mail locally; is this correct? If you are sure the message
is spam, have you considered setting the spam action to delete?

yes, this was a result having rules that are
ignored when forwards are in place.

So if someone is forwarding mail to a
remote domain that contains a spam header you want it to be delivered to a
specific mailbox for the sender? I'm drawing a blank on how to
configure that. I'll think on this for awhile.

not a different account but the one it was to
be forwarded from.

ok, great. So if we create the rule which
says to move the mail to say 'spam' it will end up in the correct
email account?

The rules are loaded based on the IPed
host domain that is sending the mail. Create the outbound rule
for the IPed domain that belongs to the ip sending the mail
(probably the primary host).

Re: [IMail Forum] outbound rules gone from 2006?
Kevin gave me a workaround for a
problem we have with forwards to AOL which involved setting an
outbound rule. Since we can't give every domain on our server an
IP to do this we're kinda stuck.
The problem is that rules
won't apply to forwarded email so an outbound rule must be added.
Now, we can't do an outbound rule since they don't exist on
virtuals.
One of these options needs to be corrected
somehow???

I believe there was a defect in
IAdmin in 8.X versions that showed the outbound rules tab for
virtual domains, but they don't work that way. Outbound
rules only work for IP domains.

I only see outbound rules on
domains with an IP. This used to be a feature for virtuals
wasn't
it??
