This is our spam / virus filter update for customers on the mx1 / mx2.tnpw.net filtering cluster. The information is brought to you by our vendor, SpamExperts.
What's new this week:
Upcoming Debian Linux upgrade
We're continuing to process the manual upgrade requests to our latest OS version. We expect a full roll out to all customers to complete over the next weeks, and will announce that via this weekly update email in advance.
Wildcard Subdomains in sender white- and black-listing
The sender whitelist and blacklist, both for the incoming and outgoing products, will now accept “*” to match sub-domains. For example, if you wish to accept all mail from billing.example.com, outgoing.example.com, reports.example.com, and anything else that ends with “.example.com”, rather than have to individually whitelist each of these domains, you can just whitelist “*.example.com”. The same applies for blacklisting, if you wish to reject all mail from addresses at those domains.
This can be used with or without a local part, just as with the regular whitelist and blacklist functionality. For example, perhaps you wish to blacklist sam@*.example.net so that messages from [email protected] and [email protected] and any other address like that is rejected. The wildcard will also match any number of parts, so this would also block messages from [email protected] as well.
This functionality isn’t exposed in the web interface yet, but will be in an upcoming release, so you’ll need to set these values directly via the API for now.
