Sam, Thanks for the reply. I want to understand what is happening here...
I think setting it up as you described tells spamdyke to behave like this: when it see's the user myu...@mydomain.com either don't block the 66.96. IP structure or always allow mail from @eigbox.net - depending upon the way i set it up. Thereby making the rule for blocking 66.96 NOT apply to that user. Am I getting this correct? Sorry to be do dense - I just want to be clear in my understanding, Denny -----Original Message----- From: Sam Clippinger <s...@silence.org> To: spamdyke users <spamdyke-users@spamdyke.org> Sent: Mon, Sep 23, 2013 4:29 pm Subject: Re: [spamdyke-users] Blacklist Delemma Sounds like you need to create a configuration directory so you can turn off the blacklist entry for that one user and leave it turned on for everyone else. If your user's email address is myu...@mydomain.com, create a folder structure like this: /var/qmail/spamdyke/config.d/_recipient_/com/mydomain/_at_ At the bottom of that folder structure, create a text file named for the username portion of the email address: /var/qmail/spamdyke/config.d/_recipient_/com/mydomain/_at_/myuser Inside that text file, put the spamdyke configuration commands to turn off the blacklist filter (assuming you added the IP range using "ip-blacklist-entry"): ip-blacklist-entry=!66.96. Or better yet, just whitelist the sender domain (it'll only affect this one recipient): sender-whitelist-entry=@eigbox.net Last, add the configuration directory option to your main spamdyke configuration file: config-dir=/var/qmail/spamdyke/config.d That should do it. -- Sam Clippinger On Sep 23, 2013, at 4:00 PM, Denny Jones wrote: Hello, I've got one account (on QmailToaster w/SpamDyke) who gets mail from a legitimate sender via the mail servers at eigbox.net. That domain has a range of IP's: 66.96.xxx.xxx. The problem is I also get a ton of spam from this same server (not from that sender). When I block "66.96.", It blocks everything. Things I've tried: 1. white listing the legitimate sender which I don't like (the sender can be spoofed). 2. white listing the whole IP (66.96.186.10) that the legitimate sender sent from (this works temporarily but will change when the IP rotates). How can I let mail come trough for this one sender from a "known" spam sender but block all the other junk? Ideas?
