EQ Admin EQ Forum Admin Staff member Nov 24, 2008 #1 Hello, Do you have a mail server that only needs to block mail from a handful of problem addresses? You can use sendmail's access file to get the job done. To block mail from a specific person please follow these steps: # cd /etc/mail # vi /etc/mail/access Add a new line to the end, for example: spammer@spamdomain.com REJECT save the access file # makemap hash access < access It is not necessary to restart sendmail for these changes to go live. -Raymond
