The following to permit: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> = [EMAIL PROTECTED] and, the following to blacklist: hotmail.com = error all entries to permit must preceed the one for blacklisting. Please, keep in mind this will block traffic coming from hotmail.com addresses; irrespective of whether it is actually from Hotmail or if it is faked - on the other hand (assuming it were possible to fake mail coming from Hotmail) if mail actually comes from Hotmail servers, but the address is faked to something else, it will come through. ############################################################# This message is sent to you because you are subscribed to the mailing list <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>.
