Can I Automate a Global Blacklist for Email addresses

The following procedure will allow your Users to add email addresses to a global Blacklist by sending an email

1. Create a new account - e.g. blacklist@yourdomain.com
2. Create a text file with a short path location - example c:\filter\filter.txt
3. Create a Global Black list rule

   Action - Reject

   Item - Sender

   Function - Contain string from file

   String - c:\filter\filter.txt

4. Create content filter

   Where Remote IP address matches

   Contains string separated with semi-colon

   String: 192.168.0.

   And

   Where Recipient matches blacklist@yourdomain.com

   Add %%subject%% to a file

   Filename - c:\filter\filter.txt

   Text - %%subject%%

Once this is complete any of your Users can add an Email address to this blacklist by sending an email to blacklist@yourdomain.com with the subject set to the address to be blacklisted. The content filter will strip the subject line from the email and append it to the blacklist text file and emails from that address will rejected in future.
