Tripp,

Local domain is domainA.
Outgoing mail originates from domainA, incoming mail to the specific user is
always, or should always be from a, b, c or d.

Nada mas.

Your rule is always true. =20

Rule 1 - suppose I send a mail from domain A, the rule interprets to: false
OR true OR true OR true =3D TRUE

Rule 2 - suppose I send a mail from domain B to domain B
false AND true OR  false OR true OR true =3D TRUE

[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
-------------------=20
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=20
Action: Forward to [EMAIL PROTECTED] (user's local domain)

outbound, host-level
---------------------
If Sender contains [EMAIL PROTECTED] (user's local domain) AND=20
   To Address Does not contain domainA.com (user's local domain) OR=20
   To Address Does not contain domainB.com OR
   To Address Does not contain domainC.com OR
   To Address Does not contain domainD.com,=20
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
