Block emails from specific domain

Postby ecsiow » Jan 04 06 9:09 pm

I'm using WinGate 6.1.1.1077. How can I configurate the wingate mail server to block emails from certain domain? For example, all emails from domain try.com will be blocked. Then, during pop3 email retrieving from isp, mails from man1@try.com, man2@try.com, .... will not be downloaded to wingate server. Furthermore, those blocked mails will be automatically deleted inside the isp mailbox.

Thanks.

Hi

WinGate's SMTP server allows you to block source addresses by domain, but for POP3 retrieval by WinGate, these policies aren't checked, and mail is delivered based on the destination address rather than the from address. We would need to add this in a different version. We do have another utility that will do this (allow you to log into a POP3 account, and delete messages or perform other actions based on headers in the mail) - it's called MailMinion, but we haven't done anything to it for a while. Otherwise there should be several other free POP3 retrieval clients around that will do this.
