Hi Carl,

The sender is easily forged, this is why Declude specifically looks at the sender in the envelope and not the FROM line, this is by design.

The PRE-TESTED filter was/is a temporary fix for the pre-tested spam, if you are using it in conjunction with the GOOD-REVDNS you would not be facing these issues as the PRE-TESTED filter would end on legitimate 3rd party mailers (The 3rd party mailers like constant contact are legitimate email senders they are not spam, also their unsubscribe links do work.) Another option you have is to use the gauntlet http://mailsbestfriend.com/downloads/docs/Gauntlet_2.0_Instructions.pdf

A third option, as you are in Canada you may want to look at Opt Out From Online Behavioural Advertising http://youradchoices.ca/choices

Hope this starts you in the right direction. This is an issue that can be resolved. Let us know if you need further help.

Hi. I have an ongoing problem…

Declude-Sender screws up whitelisting.

*Is there any way we can have the whitelists use the FROM address and NOT just the Declude-Sender?*

Whitelisting doesn’t work much of the time because increasingly, firms are using mailing list

services instead of their own mail servers. Everyone thinks it’s a great idea to use

constant-contact, mailchimp etc, to send their ‘legitimate’ broadcasts.

The same services used to send mail people /don’t/ want.

For example.

Why on earth Declude-Sender be @envfrm.rsys2.com for

Thrifty Rental Car reservations when they could use their own servers @thrifty.com.

Stupid idea. As a result,

*the PRE-TESTED filter was filtering out people’s rental-car reservations!*

The fact that everyone now wants to /send/ marketing /to everyone/ but /never /wants to

/get/marketing /from anyone/, /except /the marketing /they do want to get/ but

but which /no one else wants to get/:  is driving me insane.

Comments?

Carl
