Kent,

The wilcard entries in the form *@domain.com should work fine.Can you please look in the SpamFilter.ini file for the entry:

ExcludedFromEmailsFileName=

and post (or email us) the contents of that file here. We'd also need posted (or again emailed) the Activity Log entries that show what happens when the supposedly excluded email address receives mail.

If everything went as expected, assuming that *@abc.com is an entry in the "Exlcuded From Emails", an incoming message from roberto@abc.com would look like this in the log:

04/14/03 14:07:58:047 -- (2428) Connection from: 192.168.1.100  -  Originating country : N/A

I set up SpamFilter a few days ago on a test domain and have been watching the effectiveness of it. One problem I seem to be having is preventing false positives for a few emails. I added them to the Excluded FROM Emails lst, however they continue to quarintined. I am entering them as *@domain.com, each on a seperate line. Yes I will tighten it down to specific email addresses once I know it is working.
