| I am using the latest version of .net mail server Is there any way of preventing emails from your own email address without blocking the complete domain? I am receiving emails from my own email address for example if my address was info@argosoft.com I would get an spam from that address. I have greylisting setup, which is working great at prveneting all the other spam. Thank you | | |

| If you use e-Wall http://www.sssolutions.net/ew/ you can set up a rule that states "If user is local and NOT authenticated Reject Message and delete". I also have a second rule that states "If recipient and sender address are equal and sender is not authenticated, Reject Message and delete. The only caveat to these rules is when you go to some sites where you can email an article or link and they try to use your SMTP server (since it is from you), the message will be rejected. For me that is a small price to pay to stop the flow of spam. | | - - - - - - -

| The features of Mail Filter and eWall are slightly different. I suggest posting a question in the Server Side Solutions Support forums. Alex, the developer will be better equipped to answer you question. The forum for Mail Filter is located at http://forum.sssolutions.net/forumd...ay.php?f=3 | | - - - - - - -

|  | | Mail Server v1.0.8.3 |
- Added support of STARTTLS (STLS) command for SMTP, POP3, IMAP, and SMTP relay and delivery, which will
allow secure, fully encrypted connections, when possible;
| | 11/6/2011 1:10:34 PM |
| Mail Server v1.0.8.2 |
- Optimized delivery speed. In earlier versions each "tick" which was checking whether messages were
in the outbox queue, was picking up only one message at a time. Now it will attempt to pick MaximumAllowedThreads-ActiveDelivery threads
messages, which should considerably increase deliver speed;
- Optimized SEARCH and STATUS IMAP commands. They appear to be used very extensively by Android, and (not that extensively, but still) by
iPhone. Now users who use mobile phones to access their IMAP accounts will see considerable improvement;
- Optimized STORE IMAP command. Before storing of IMAP flags was occuring one message at a time, which seemed to be fine
with SQL server, but proved to be slow for SQLite... Now it happens with single SQL call.

| ArGoSoft Mail Server v1.0.8.1 | -
Fixed a bug: when using IMAP via Firefox with "When I delete a message, move it
to Trash folder" option, marking messages in the trash folder was causing high CPU usage,
and was taking some time, making the server pretty much non-responsive. The problem was
happening only when using SQLite.

| ArGoSoft Mail Server v1.0.8.0 |
- Fixed a problem with web interface - was showing only first page of messages, and would not
switch to other pages; In order to fix the web interface, mail server itself has to be updated;
- When installint initially, was still using SQLite, even when SQL was requested;
- There was a problem with switching from SQLite database engine to SQL server database engine:
the SQL database was not being created;
| | 5/23/2011 5:53:55 PM |
| ArGoSoft Mail Server .NET v1.0.7.9 |
- The server no longer requires Microsoft SQL Server. If SQL server is not found, it will use
SQLite engine, which does not require separate installation. If SQL server is found, then user will be
prompted whether he wants to use it;
- Made other improvements, such as, now mailbox rebuild indexes orphaned records, rather then deleting them,
also added an opotion to increment UIDL validity of folder (both on the Mailbox viewer box);
- Made minor improvements on web interface;
