I recently asked this - you'd need to write a generic filter that trapped
on a FROM domain, and acted accordingly, which I've now done. I'd really
like a way of filtering based on from domain, since it would be much
quicker for Xmail to check for a source.com.tab filter then kick off copies
of perl for each message received just to test. I have a friend who routes
mail for a large university, and when I discussed this with him he noted
that at peak periods he's got close on 100 connections delivering smtp
inbound into his relay. In such a circumstance the potential for many
concurrent copies of perl executing might make even a beefy server have a
hard time of it.... or am I just talking garbage here? I guess to large
extent it depends on what you actually do with the filters, but I still
think a source filter facility would be a nice idea.

hi there,

is it possible to filter outgoing mails, that are sent from my smtp users?
(maybe user specific like [EMAIL PROTECTED]) ?

that would be great, because so we could prevent that our customers send
viruses over our mail server.

greets soenke.
