Wash, Thanks for the advice. You can only block the IP of the mail server on the firewall and i don't use any application to read the log files. On Wed, Jul 10, 2013 at 10:03 AM, Odhiambo Washington <odhiambo@gmail.com>wrote:
I don't understand how you manage to block an e-mail address on a firewall. How do you do it? I know there are applications that can read log files and do something with a match on a regexp, but I'm just curious how you do this in your situation.
If you're using an SMTP engine, you can do what in Exim parlance we refer to as "sender callout"/verification. You can RTFM for your SMTP engine on how to do that.
An even simpler way is to use greylisting with throttling.

Hi Skunks,
I have a guy spamming my network and every time i block the email address and IP address on my firewall he sends with a different address, domain and ip address.
I would like to know if there is a way i can block such a person.
