BLOCK E-MAIL

Is there a way to block e-mail? There must be some way to write a rule to block e-mail, but I do not know how. I keep telling mail to send this sender to junk, but it continues to place them in my in box. I am certain there must be a way to block mail, but I cannot figure that out. I know using outlook or outlook express on a PC, blocking a sender is possible. So, I am certain it must be possible on my MAC since this MAC is far superior to any PC. Any help would be very appreciated.

Each email must have an sender. There are several ways of faking them (and other meta information about the mail). However, I will not explain how to do this.
If you do not want others to know your real identity, create a new address at some free mail service provider and use this fresh address.

  • Why is icloud blocking my mails containings special words?

    I figured out, that icloud blocks any mails which I will recieve or send via my @me.com account. If I send those mails via another mailaccount it works, if my mail-partner sends the same mail to the other mailaccount it works, too.
    I tried a long time to figure out, which words in the mail (sent via icloud) will cause the problem. Now I know that an I m confused.
    Is there a "blacklist / whitlist" at icloud?
    This problem happens undepending of which unit I m using (macbook / ipad or iphone). Therefore the filter has to be on icloud somewhere...
    Thanks in advance for any ideas !

    Hi overnunft!
    I have an article that may be helpful for you in addressing this issue and searching for a resolution:
    iCloud: Identifying and filtering spam
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4899
    Specifically, it seems like this section is going to be the most relevant to your question:
    Troubleshooting false-positives
    Due to the complexity of accurately detecting and filtering out spam, on rare occasions a legitimate email from a friendly source may be blocked from reaching your Inbox. This is called a false-positive. If you feel that a legitimate email message was inadvertently filtered, you may want to ask your friend to send a follow up email to verify the issue exists before contacting support. If you notice that multiple email messages are being delayed, bounced, or not delivered, please contact iCloud Support directly.
    Also make sure to check your Junk folder for email messages that were incorrectly marked as spam. To check your Junk folder from iCloud.com, choose the Mail application and click the Junk folder in the sidebar.
    Note: Email messages in the Junk folder are automatically deleted after 30 days.
    Thanks for using the Apple Support Communities. Have a good one!

  • Apple Mail blocks Charter email, which blocks Apple mail

    I am running 10.6.8 on a 2008 Mac Pro. I was using MS Entourage as my email program. I want to upgrade to Lion/Mtn Lion, but my old MS Entourage or other Office programs won't work on that, so I decided to start using Apple Mail (version 4.6)
    I get my email thru my ISP, Charter.net,
    When Apple Mail is OPEN it will not connect to Charter email, and Charter email will not display or recieve or send any email, nor will Entourage (POP) or a MS Outlook (trial version). Apple Mail says it "cannot connect to the IMAP server," and it "cannot connect to the SMTP server."
    I have set up Apple Mail correctly according to Charter: IMAP port 143, SMTP port 25, no SSL etc (default email reader Entourage, but I've tried Mail, Outlook, etc. …no change in my problem)
    When I quit Apple Mail, the others will immediately access/send emails.
    The problem seems to be that for some reason Apple Mail blocks Charter mail from connecting, but since that is where I get my email, Apple Mail is blocking itself, Entourage and Outlook from connecting to the IMAP/SMTP servers, therefore no mail service.
    The strange thing is that now and again Apple Mail WILL connect—briefly—and mail will come in/go out, but then drops offline again.
    I've been on the phone with Charter for a couple hours and had a service tech here this morning for an hour, but everyone is stumped. Of course none of them are very Mac-savvy, so that doesn't help.
    Can any of you help?

    I've been having exactly the same trouble with my Charter E-mail Accounts.
    I first use two of my existing Charter E-mail Accounts (which I have never used in years!). Set them up in Apple Mail (Snow Leopard 10.6.8, on my MacPro 4.1) as POP Accounts!
    They did work sometimes, but now I can only receive mail.
    Set up a new Charter E-mail Account, and used that to Set Up in Apple Mail as IMAP Account. It does NOT work at all, period, either way.
    I've been on the phone with Charter Tech Support many, many, many times, for many hours, but nobody has a clue. They tell me to check their webpage for Set Up, which I don't need because I've been through the Set-up Procedure so many times already.
    Then they tell me to call Apple Tech Support, which I cannot afford.
    So, now I'm back to using my old DreamHost E-mail Accounts, which work just fine, after their Tech Support helped me to resolve some issues. They had me open Terminal, then Keychain. I tried all three Keychain Methods, which resolved the issues with DreamHost E-mail.
    I'm going to try setting up my G-mail Account in Apple Mail and see what happens .....

  • Block junk mail on my I phone

    How can I block junk mail on my iphone
    thanks

    With an IMAP account.
    I also access my IMAP account with the Mail.app on my Mac (which includes a junk mail filter) and I keep the Mail.app on my Mac launched and running actively accessing the account for new messages.
    Any message received that is marked as junk by the junk mail filter with the Mail.app on my Mac and moved to the account's Junk mailbox is reflected automatically when accessing the account with the iPhone's Mail client since all server stored mailboxes with an IMAP account are kept synchronized with the server automatically with each email client used to access the account.

  • How do you block junk mail

    How do you block junk mail.  I sync to my work email and it is blocked on that server but I get junk mail on my phone.

    There is no setting on the iPhone. That is what I told you in the first post. Your email client on the computer probably has a junk filter built in or something you can set. The only way to filter email on the iPhone is at the server.

  • Block external mails that have @mydomain

    Hi, I am receiving a lot of spam that has the from @mydomain, I have 2 servers, one only for internal mail, and the other for the external, in the external server, is there a way to block the mails from the exterior that are from @mydomain and not originated in any of my servers?
    In other words, I want to allow sending mail from @mydomain from my network, but do not receive any from @mydomain from externals ips.
    Thanks

    Hi Roberts,
    Thx for the reply.
    Yes blacklist is an option but has to be done for every domain.
    Your script works for only some combinations. I did a little research on regular expression and made the message filter.
    quarantine_obfuscations_to_test:
    if mail-from != "(?i)@test\\.com$"
    if mail-from == "(?i)@*test+\\.*$" {
    duplicate-quarantine("Policy");
    drop();
    So every combination that might trick user in replying to legit email will be blocked:

  • Mail: new message window blocks the Mail program

    Hello,
    When you write a new mail, the new nice interface makes the window of the new mail appear as it did on the iPad. However, this does not allow you to use the Mail program for other uses: for instance, I used to open the new mail window, and continuously switch to other received emails to re-read while typing the new one or similar.
    This is not permitted anymore and the only way I found is to open a new entire mail window, which is not exactly the best solution...
    Does anyone know how to make the popup window of the new email "non-blocking"?
    I think this is a nice-looking feature but VERY counterproductive.
    Thanks a lot,
    Marco

    Hi Marco,
    You can send feedback to Apple at http://www.apple.com/feedback
    As far as I am aware there is currently no way to change the new message overlay in full screen mail.

  • How do I block junk mail from going to my iPhone and iPad?

    I blocked a ton of emails from Outlook on my work PC but they still come to my iPhone and iPad. The block on my PC did the job but for some reason, my phone and ipad cannot tell the difference. Please help! I cant stand getting bogus emails all day long!

    Sorry KT, but that answer is ridiculous.
    Since 2007 there have been hundreds, if not thousands, of messages on this discussion forum about the need for client-side email filtering on the iPhone.  Server-side filtering has two major problems:
    Many people using the same server/service have different notions of what’s SPAM.  I might need to see marketing messages from some firm I work with and ignore political messages.  You might work in politics and want to filter something completely different.  There is not way for a service to filter out SPAM unless it has individual data on what to filter out.  Programmers who write services choose to put common functionality on the server side and user-specific stuff on the client side because that’s the most effective solution.
    All good mail clients filter SPAM in some way.  Even Apple Mail.app filters SPAM using a relatively sophisticated algorithm. Thus the folks who do server filtering know that an additional, fine-grain, filter exists downstream from them. If they do more filtering upstream, they will make more mistakes, and users will get mad.  They are incentivized by every other email client to filter out only the truly blatant SPAM, and let users handle the rest with client-side filtering.
    There are other iPhone email clients, for jailbroken phones, so the market for this capability clearly exists.  Why has Apple gotten the answer wrong for 5 years?
    Frankly, my kids got me an iPhone for Christmas because they thought I was a luddite.  I’m looking to get out of the contract because I just can’t use it to read my email and my old phone was more than good enough to talk on. I’ve been an Apple customer since the Original Mac, but this is the first Apple product that just doesn’t work.

  • Microsoft Blocking my Mail Server IP after delist

    I've tried repeatedly to get my IP delisted from FOPE.
    We got a new block of IP's from our ISP, and I have checked that we are not on any other blacklist.  Emails send everywhere else on the internet apart from 365 users.
    Emailing one of my customers is on 365, and when I email him I get:

  • Can you give me an example of using blacklist from in mail settings to block unwanted mail?

    I want to use serveradmin settings mail command line to set a list of domains/servers I do not want to receive emails from. Can you give me an example on how to set this in ML server?
    I managed to set the domains using the command line serveradmin but it is not working. This is a list of domains I have set so far:
    mail:postfix:blacklist_from:_array_index:0 = "bounces.servidordeenvio.com"
    mail:postfix:blacklist_from:_array_index:1 = "reiserver50.info"
    mail:postfix:blacklist_from:_array_index:2 = "vps5.central-adworks.com.br"
    mail:postfix:blacklist_from:_array_index:3 = "emailTrocar.com.br"
    mail:postfix:blacklist_from:_array_index:4 = "geeklemail21.com.br"
    mail:postfix:blacklist_from:_array_index:5 = "produtosnotaveis.org"
    But I still keep receiving emails from those domains with virus (which are intercepted by the virus filtering) and receiving alert messages from the server app suggesting me to include these domains in a blacklist.
    Thanks for your help..

    Thank you.
    I tried it out and did not work either but I finally found a way to add multiple entries. I read on the serveradmin man page that if you had multiple values you should better off use a file for input.
    I did create a plain file with as many as needed entries:
    mail:postfix:blacklist_from:_array_index:0 = "*@xxx.com"
    mail:postfix:blacklist_from:_array_index:1 = "*@xxxx.com"
    saved as blacklist then I issued the command:
    sudo serveradmin settings < blacklist
    This solved the setting of multiple values. I will monitor if it will really block the spam from the locations.
    Thanks again for your help and interest.

  • Report of blocked spam mail list

    I want to have a consolidated report of the list of mails which has been blocked under spam category in a day or week or month.
    Can any one suggest how to get this report especially for spam category
    Thanks
    Siva

    Thanks Jerry for the reply,
    Now i am able to get the consildated report of spam detected messages for the specified period. But the report is showing the latest 250/500/1000 messages only.
    But we have more than 500 spam blocyked messages in an hour. So even we selected the period -  day/week/month, the result will be the latest/last 1000 messages only.
    First query is
    Can i get entire spam blocked message list during the specified period instead of showing the latest 1000 messages? It should have the option Unlimited? Is it possible?
    Second query is
    If the first query is successful, Can i get that report by scheduling the period with out manual intruption.
    I am unable to find any option to create a customized report. Is it possible?
    Thanks
    Siva
