Ah, okay. Thanks for the clarification. Then Tom's suggestion of: XINHEADER X-FromEMailAddress: %MAILFROM% [%REMOTEIP%]
make sense. Except, we currently cannot do anything with the [%REMOTEIP%] variable at this time, so we can probably leave that off? Scott, is the %REMOTEIP% variable reporting the IP address of the mail server that connects to the I-Mail server or the original sending mail servers IP address? Or, if you are using a gateway mail server, and it honors the IPBYPASS and HOP settings, does it report the IP address of the mail server that connected to our gateway? Sorry for the string of questions, just want to make sure I understand. Thanks, Bill -----Original Message----- From: R.

Or am I confused. What are we looking for >here, the original sending mail servers IP address or something else? There are two different things that IMail can use to stop an E-mail before it arrives. One is the "Kill List", which works on the return address (the %MAILFROM% variable, that is in the X-Declude-Sender: header when the XSENDER option is used in Declude JunkMail). This is an E-mail address (and sometimes different than the From: or Reply-To: addresses). The other is the "Control Access" file, which blocks E-mail based on the IP address. However, the format of this file is undocumented and risky to edit unless Ipswitch releases the details of the file. That's the one that the %REMOTEIP% could be useful in, if it were possible to automatically add to the Control Access file. -Scott --- [This E-mail was scanned for viruses by Declude Virus (http://www.declude.com)] --- This E-mail came from the Declude.JunkMail mailing list.
