Filtering Emails By Ip Address


Magic

Recommended Posts

Hello,

 

I'm still bombarded by email viruses, more then 150 on the last 40 days...

 

I know there is someone of my competition that his hitting me hard.

The emails addresses are always fake, but the IP sources are always the same...

 

I'm using the IP Deny manager for blocking his access to my site.

 

There is a way to filter this emails by blocking those IP's?

I think this could be a good way also to prevent spam, when is coming always from the same source, don't you think?

 

There is a way to find the name of this person?

 

 

thanks

Magic

Two things come to mind:

 

In cpanel > email > filtering

you can add a filter for any header that contains the IP address

set to discard.

 

If that does not work, maybe a help ticket with as much info as possible.

No guarantees, but maybe they can help.

Also, one of the good ways to really get them is to report them to one of the many DNSBLs (DNS Block Lists) out there.

A quick search of DNSBL on Google will net you plenty of folks to submit them to. However, someone with a virus is not a reason to report them to a DNSBL service. If these are truly virus emails, then you need to follow Don's suggestions and get them blocked. If they are otherwise spamming, then you report them to a DNSBL.
