Did you ever get a definitive answer from Tech Support on this? Or is this just another one of life's mysteries? -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]On Behalf Of Gary Harlam Sent: Tuesday, October 28, 2003 4:54 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [IMail Forum] unacceptable mail address I think so - I am working with support to find out.   - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Gary Harlam Technology Advisory Group 909 North Main Street Providence, RI 02904 401-521-0333    Phone 401-521-0011    Fax >>> [EMAIL PROTECTED] 10/28/2003 4:01:54 PM >>> I ran into a similar situation yesterday. I decided to insert only domains and addresses I was sure were spam myself and cleared the kill.lst. Like you, I used they syntax @*domain.tld with no . before the domain. The first address that I put in was @*greenmarkerdom.com. I continue to get spam from addresses such as [EMAIL PROTECTED], so I can only conclude that imail has a bug when using a @* without a .domain.tld.   There are less than 10 addresses in the kill file, so this cannot be the 100 entry issue either.   Seems more like a bug. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]On Behalf Of Gary Harlam Sent: Monday, October 27, 2003 8:59 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [IMail Forum] unacceptable mail address unacceptable mail address in MAIL FROM . . .   We have added a bunch of names to the Kill.lst file in the form of @*domain.com.    We are getting mail bounced with the sender getting:     "501 unacceptable mail address"   10:27 10:31 SMTPD(0CD300E8) [207.217.120.84] EHLO gull.mail.pas.earthlink.net 10:27 10:31 SMTPD(0CD300E8) [207.217.120.84] unacceptable mail address in MAIL FROM:<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>   10:27 14:18 SMTPD(00E700F8) [65.54.246.199] EHLO hotmail.com 10:27 14:18 SMTPD(00E700F8) [65.54.246.199] unacceptable mail address in MAIL FROM:<[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Do I assume correctly that Imail will match against the EHLO name and not the MAIL FROM address ?  I have searched the kill file for any possible matches to the sending domain name and can't find any.  Is there a way to get Imail to disclose the match or the reason for the denial ? I am going to eliminate the *'s in the Killfile to see if it helps.  Any other suggestions ?   Thanks,   Gary   - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Gary Harlam Technology Advisory Group 909 North Main Street Providence, RI 02904 401-521-0333    Phone 401-521-0011    Fax
