[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index] Re: [FW-1] Filtering incoming SMTP "from" your domain via SS
Title: Message I'm a
little confused. If someone is sending legitimate email to [email protected], you're accepting
it. If the 'from' email address is forged to be [email protected], but the to
address is still [email protected],
there is a legitimate recipient for the message on your
network.
I'm
trying to determine the benefit to putting in the no-forge restriction. Is
the idea to prevent spammers from dumping things into your net? If so,
it's an interesting idea, but the spam I get rarely forges the from address as
being specifically from *my* domain.
On its
face it sounds like added complexity with minimal benefit. Could you
perhaps clarify the intended goal?
