Well, I've looked like a bigger fool before, so this one isn't so bad :) Guess I have to rethink some of this.
It would be so much easier if we could just shoot people who send all this crap out. Thanks for the quick response. Phillip -----Original Message----- From: Jason J.

SMTP IN filter will only have one address (it is run for each RCPT), so that's why it has one. ------------------------------------------------------------ Jason J Ellingson Sr. Web Software Developer 615.301.1682 : nashville 612.605.1132 : minneapolis www.ellingson.com [EMAIL PROTECTED] -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Phillip R. Shaw Sent: Friday, December 31, 2004 1:13 PM To: xmail@xmailserver.org Subject: [xmail] Re: Spam blocking filter Ok, I have been looking at this closer now. The SMTP-MaxErrors would be a big help, but ... :( I am guessing that it will implemented to be checked in the smtpsrv processing. And since I am using filters.out.tab processing I won't have a chance to bump the error count. Am I correct in my new understanding of the filter processing that the filter.out.tab is processed after all the smtp processing? It sure looks like it. So I have another request. Would it be possible to add a couple more macros to the filter.[pre|post]-data.tab processing? What I am most interested is the email address the message was sent to. I don't think the from address has any real value, they are faked too often on junk, but someone would probably want that as well. I know the rcpt address is in the message file, and may resort to parsing it out of there. First glance looked like it would require more then just reading the 5th line of the file and doing a string compare. Was there a reason for not implementing these macros for the pre|post filters? Since the filters are at the data point all the header information is available, isn't it? Or have I misread something in there? Thanks Phillip (and the SMTP-MaxErrors is already in my server.tab, just waiting for something to use it :)) - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe xmail" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] For general help: send the line "help" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- Binary/unsupported file stripped by Ecartis -- -- Type: application/ms-tnef -- File: winmail.dat - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe xmail" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] For general help: send the line "help" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
