Does anyone know how to create a rule so that any spammers using the format:
Anyuser@[ServersIPAddress]
Can be blocked/deleted
I've tried several different ways without success
Any ideas anyone

Actually the kill list might not work with an IP. I would use the SMTP

If you arbitrarily block a /24 without researching how much of it is
actually controlled by the spammer you run the risk of blocking legitimate

Now a days ISPs are requiring justifying IP allocations, they're less
likely to hand out a /24 just because you want one.

Stephen,
Sounds like your imail server used to be secondary mx for this domain,
having a HOSTS file entry with a wrong ip address defined for this domain.

This one client CAN email to other domains hosted on
the same mail server *running Imail* just fine.

Using the Imail database, checked permissions and size per your
