and in fact- attached is just such a plugin. this is a slightly modified version of regex_mailfrom, part of my qplocal suite. i have added code to let you 'OKALL' an incoming mailfrom address via a regex. this allows you to only accept mail from remote users who's machines have not been updated yet. the config/regex_mailfrom lines consist of: STATUS REGEX COMMENT a sample could look like: OKALL [EMAIL PROTECTED] Trusting remote user DENY [EMAIL PROTECTED] Get in the office! OK \.(com|net|org|edu|info|us|gov)$ Accepting mail DENY . We dont accept foreign email this will allow 'remote.user' to relay mail (since the plugin returns OK in hook_rcpt for 'OKALL' status), while blocking a local user from relaying (so you better have an ip-based plugin before this one) and, just to demonstrate, we allow mail from 'USA' type domains, but not others. not exactly recommended. see www.thebility.com/qplocal/ for more such code.
