Is it possible to block all mail addresses of a local domain except one ? There are several more domains that are forwarded by the Gateway with lots of users local mail addresses.

Background: There is only one mail address for the domain, but spammers are sending mails to various random users. I want to block them at the gateway.

Marc,

There is an "Authorized TO" whitelist in SpamFilter that allows emails to go thru only if the recipient is in that list, and will block all others. However this is a global settings, it can't currently be configured on a per-domain basis. So if you have other local domains besides the one with the single user, this will not work for you unless you also add all other users in that list.

An option would be to run another instance of SpamFilter (installed in a different directory) and listening on a different IP/port, to receive email for that domain only. You can then configure it to accept emails addressed to that user only.

One of the furure enhancements will be to allow some or all of the blacklists to be active for specific domains only, but we do not have an ETA on that.
