Mail-News / PMMail and filters - this one is not working...why?
« on: June 10, 2022, 10:40:00 pm »
So my very, very old email address has gone through cycles of SPAM...but this latest hit is a prolonged one and so I've decided to cook up some extra filters to deal with that challenge.
Luckily for me the vast majority of SPAM email addresses end with a couple of string patters. Here is an example of an email HEADER:
You will noticed the from email address ends with ".click", I am also getting a pile of ".xyz" as well, easy enough to spot!
So to deal with this I figured that I'd just "beef up" my existing filters by adding the following;
...alas, this does NOT work, and I cannot figure out why???
That filter is supposed to tell PMMail to simply look for a "*click" or "*xyz" in the actual email address field itself.
So I'm curious, is anything jumping out at anyone here?
Thanks!
