fjpoblam Posted May 13, 2015 Report Share Posted May 13, 2015 In a user-level filter I am considering the use of a condition "From" plus "ends with" to target emails from a certain domain (e.g., "From" "ends with" "@foo.com" However, it occurs to me that "From" contains not only an email address but also text describing the email address (e.g., "John Doe" "jd@foo.com"or is it, "jd@foo.com" "John Doe"?I dunno). Will "From" "ends with" "@foo.com" work reliably? Where in the "From" header does it hit? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim Posted May 13, 2015 Report Share Posted May 13, 2015 It should block everything@foo.com, as the From rule checks the sending address. Please note that it is possible for Spammers to spoof this information . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(I certainly have no formal training in regex: self-taught.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
