Hi,
wanted to filter out annoying spam mails using a filter rule on the domain of
the spam sender. The spam mails From fields all have the format of
From: Annoying Sender at foo.host.com
where the "@foo.host.com" part is always the same.
It turns out that a rule filtering for foo.host.com does not work. I assume the
problem is the single blank/whitespace between "Annoying" and "Sender".
Is there any possibility to filter such mails? Or should I rather ask the spam
senders to politely use a valid RfC compliant format for their From addresses? :-)
Regards
Ferdinand
