Blacklisting the originating MTA

Is it possible for a user to specify that all email from a specific 
originating MTA be blaclisted?  I can't find anything that would show 
how to configure that in the blacklist.

Re: Blacklisting the originating MTA


If you can find a static bit of text in the headers, you can write a 
filter for it in "incoming" and blacklist it there.

Re: Blacklisting the originating MTA


Try viewing the full headers of the specific emails you want 
to block.

You should be able to see the path the email has taken to 
reach you, from the original sender.

You may then be able to block the emails using the
domain name(s) in the headers.

The TMDA documentation for filters seems to be saying that from-file 
only checks the from email address and does not check the real domains 
of the MTAs involved.

Use the "header" filter instead (this is in my .tmda/filters/incoming 
file):

headers '^X-BeenThere: tmda-users <at> lists.sourceforge.net' ok

If you change the 'ok' to 'drop' it would blacklist all emails from this 
list :)

The basic idea is if you can find something consistent in the headers, you 
can do whatever you like with it.

That's correct, but you can also block on the content of the 
email headers, using a rule like this in your tmda incoming 
file:

# unacceptable regex matches for other mail header fields
## headers-file ~/.tmda/filters/headers_reject deliver=spam <at> fixingemail.org
