If what you mean is that spam is getting through because the spammer forges an address that is on your whitelist, then the simple answer is don't put that address in your whitelist.

If you put your own address into your whitelist, or your own domain, then any spammer can forge it, and it will go through.

Subject: filter by mailserver


Hi

is there a way to filter by originating mailserver?

the rule "from *@=domain.dom ok" still allows spam clever enough to 
forge the from field.

i'd like to write the filter such that mail originating from 
"[email protected]" is OK. 

or have spammers figured out how to forge originating mail server 
identity too?

J
