Your rule is always true. Rule 1 - suppose I send a mail from domain A, the rule interprets to: false OR true OR true OR true = TRUE
Rule 2 - suppose I send a mail from domain B to domain B false AND true OR false OR true OR true = TRUE Tripp ----- Original Message ----- From: "[sysadmin] Laurent O. F.

[error, last post] [apologies, please excuse previous post of this email, read and received confirmation was enabled] Hi, I'm trying to find some concrete examples of some basic-to-advance inbound[user] and outbound[host] rules. I've read all the document and am pretty comfortable with the server, have been using it for years. I've also created some rules, and portions appear to behave correctly, but not all conditions. Situation: ----------- 1: I want to allow a user to only be able to send mail to the local domain and three other (this list might increase in the future) domains, else fwd mail to junk account ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) 2: I want all incoming mail to [same] user to be either from the same three domains, and the local domain, or fwd mail to a junk account ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) Rules ------ inbound, user-level ------------------- If Sender does not contain domainA.com (user's local domain) OR Sender does not contain domainB.com OR Sender does not contain domainC.com OR Sender does not contain domainD.com Action: Forward to [EMAIL PROTECTED] (user's local domain) outbound, host-level --------------------- If Sender contains [EMAIL PROTECTED] (user's local domain) AND To Address Does not contain domainA.com (user's local domain) OR To Address Does not contain domainB.com OR To Address Does not contain domainC.com OR To Address Does not contain domainD.com, Action: Redirect to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] (user's local domain) Note: [EMAIL PROTECTED], indicates that I've tried both the userID and the fully qualified user's email address. Problem: -------- Rules aren't behaving as expected. 1: local domain mail sent to the user, still go to the junkMail address 2: mail from outside domain sent to user, goes to junkMail address, as expected 3: [some, and I haven't found a pattern as yet, mail sent from other user's go to the junkMail address] I've back checked the rules for spelling errors, the logic seems impeccable. And I did some thorough tests from different networks, different email addresses, different domains. Any help at all would be appreciated. Regards, /Laurent -- Laurent O. F.
