Is there a way to block e-mail from domains that constantly change most characters in the domain name, but consistently use a recognizable naming convention that could be blocked with wild cards (don’t know if this is correct terminology).
Example. I get many, many emails from a domain that always has h3 in the domain name…
real examples:
rich@h3kotoinazuma.net
biyung-uk@h3kbuzim.net
kester@h3kemasa.net
Is there a way in Outlook to block a domain using protocols like what used to be used in DOS commands?
I am thinking there is a way to Use a command like “block *@*h3*.net”.
It would be interpreted as “block e-mail from any address that has “any name” on the left of “@” that also has anything that includes “h3″ in the domain name.
This would block a lot of SPAM for me.
Thanks,
