How can i exclude mails in spam protection from different sources?

Hi,

i use this old buggy XG 17.5.12 and would like to exclude 6 sources from RBL/SPF/IP Reputation.

The exception dialog will accept these sources (klick save is OK), but it´s not showing up in the list (maybe a cosmetic bug).

40.92.0.0/15
40.107.0.0/16
52.100.0.0/14
104.47.0.0/17
2a01:111:f400::/48
2a01:111:f403::/48

Any idea?

  • Hi  

    At the moment IP host with type network not supported in Spam exception.

    When you create an IP host through the UI with type network then it will call a function opcode to create an IP host which is shared with the entire subsystems. So you will get the same function and due to this it will give the option over there for IP host, network, IP list, IP range which are available or linked with main function.

    Summary:

    1) IP host with type network, list and range not supported in Sources or hosts entry in Spam exception.

    2) FQDN host with type wildcard not supported with Sources or hosts entry. 

    Example:

    Not supported: *.xyz.com 

    Supported: xyz.com

    3) Wildcard email domain entry supported with Sender addresses or Recipient addresses example : *@xyz.com

  • Thanks Vishal_R,

    how would you whitelist sender addresses,

    if the sender is not known to me and if the sending mail server is blacklisted at the time, the mail is send?

    I often get no mail from sender adresses that are blocked, because one of the Microsoft sending hosts are in a Blacklist for a few hours.

    Should i really bypasse the sources/hosts (for this feature i don´t need a firewall appliance).

    I got this from Sophos support.

    1. You can create firewall rule with source host and add it in source. 
    2. Select service which you want to bypass, and save the rule on top. 
    3. You should be good to go
