Granny needs up configuring a filter

Tue Apr 25, 2017 9:29 am

Guys, I would really appreciate some help setting up a filter to block a particular type email--they all end in .nl. For instance:

@otohemineurasthenia.eticast.nl
serenoas@componency.newsbow.nl
silentiary@nongrained.percepus.nl

I used the pro version for a couple of years, but I am about to retire and will not be able to afford it so I let it go. Now, I am using MailWasher Free ver. 7.90. I am being bombarded by spam, but it is all from one main source with a zillion variations I tried to figure this out, but it is just beyond me. Would anyone be willing to help? I would be so grateful.
Thanks, a granny in Texas

For maximum effectiveness, you might want to ensure that the filter suggested on my previous post is elevated to the very top of the food-chain by using the Filter priority pyramid arrow, as illustrated below:—

Have made a slight improvement in the filter on my first illustration — just tightened-up the rule a little bit to reduce false positives.
