Date Posted: 31 August 2006 at 2:49pm

At our company I've written a plugin for Outlook that allows our employees to blacklist the 'from' address of any email in their inbox they deem to be spam.

Recently, one employee let me know that 3 times she had blacklisted an email, but they were still coming through to her inbox. I have here the logfile, and email header from the email detailing what is going on. This spammer has a methodology I havnt personally run into before, and I'm wondering if anyone else has encountered similar emails, and if there is any way to block them aside from adding mailto:root@www.insurancehotline.com - root@www.insurancehotline.com to the blacklist, and will that even stop it? The address  mailto:romanov@insurancehotline.com - romanov@insurancehotline.com was the one that was in our blacklist while these were still coming through.

Here is the SF log:
