TamaraNicole Posted March 6, 2003 Share Posted March 6, 2003 I need to block an AOL user from sending me email. I see in the cpanel a "block" option, but when I test the filter, I get the message that the filter failed. What am I doing wrong? I have it set to filter all mail with the header from which equals this idiot's AOL account. Any suggestions? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rayners Posted March 6, 2003 Share Posted March 6, 2003 What options did you chose for the blocker, and what text did you have it check for? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TamaraNicole Posted March 6, 2003 Author Share Posted March 6, 2003 I had it set to FROM which EQUALS (aol addy) - which didn't work I changed it to FROM which MATCHES REG EX (aol addy) - which now gives me the message "Filtering set up at least one significant delivery or other action. No other deliveries will occur." So I think I figured it out by myself... but thanks so much for the quick response! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rayners Posted March 6, 2003 Share Posted March 6, 2003 I imagine equals requires the block to make an exact match. Matching regex doesn't need to be exact. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
