I have a very odd request. I would like to have my own country (wouldn't we all!).
![]() Is this possible? Does anyone know how to mess with the i.p. -> country mapping file, GeoIP.dat? Thanks for putting up with my weirdness. ![]() Stephen Edited by sgeorge |

answering a question with a question !!!! Does the keyword filtering check the headers as well??? If so, could you write a regex that checks the recieving domain and also checks that the email was recieved from the IP in question? Again, I dont know if the keyword searches the headers, and I dont know how to write regex, but maybe it could be done. just a thought. |

To answer the headers question, only the "Received:" headers are scanned. We were seing way too many false positives by scanning all other headers...

Does that suggest that the keyword filter wouldn't know what the recieving domain is ??

Correct. The keyword filter just scans the email body and subject for keywords. Other filters who act on the recipient will know what the receiving domain is.

I'm not sure what you're asking...
For example the whitelist "Email FROM" filter looks at the recipient to see it's domain. The County blacklist filter doesn't care about the recipient's domain, so it will not look at it. Filters that look incontent, like the keywords, SURBL, and Bayesian filters, do not look at neither senders nor recipients. Each filter acts upon something. Sometimes it's the sender's domain. Sometime it's the sender's IP. Sometime it's the recipient's email, etc. |
