> While we're talking about Kill File, how do I add single IP address to
kill file?
You can't -- the Kill File is for return addresses; the Control Access file
is where you would enter IPs.

That won't work -- because nobody is sending E-mail from
"[EMAIL PROTECTED]".
You can add the IP 208.231.5.137 to the IMail Control Access file.

That's the HELO/EHLO data -- IMail doesn't block on that (our latest beta
of Declude JunkMail can, though).

That's the one that should work, so you shouldn't be lost. :)

The Kill File should only be used on addresses/domains that send mail you
don't want. You shouldn't block @hotmail.com just because spammers are
sending you mail from @hotmail.com -- in that case, you would want to block
on the IP address (using the Control Access file).
