per day, blacklisting domain and sender does not work, is there a way to block emails that contains the name CANADIAN PHARNACY? please help

Yes, you just need to setup a filter using this word within MWPro, then once you find it is working correctly and not catching any legitimate emails, set it to auto delete the email.

Check out the Filter tips here:

http://www.firetrust.com/en/products/ma ... d-features

And under, Help>>Help>>Topics>>Spam Tools>>Using Filters for details on making a filter.

(I'd recommend you set the filter to check the entire header for the text)

You can set your filters, (Settings>>Spam Tools>>Filters>>click a filter>>Edit) to auto delete by selecting this option under the Actions tab there...

Can you show me how to set it? and another question must i leave my pc on all night when setting these filters?

[gingbat]

No, no need to leave your PC on all the time, however you just need to ensure you check mail in MW first to delete any spam before checking mail in any email program.

Re the filter, yes, as per below screenshot...(if your spelling was incorrect (was not sure) just type in the correct spelling..

No thats actually how they spell the name lol, my spelling is good hehe, if i can't spell at my age something is clearly wrong lol

[gingbat]

haha, yes, likely the spammer has English as a second language...

Ok this doesnt seem to stop them, is there a way to block spammer IP addresses?

[ljc31032]

Everything i try seems to be in vain as these guys seem impossible to stop, so i would like to know if there is a way to block IP addresses? maybe
if i start hittng them PCs instead of useless domain and name blocks maybe i can get some peace from these guys

[gingbat]

Yes, you can filter anything in the email you like, just check the IP is the same in each email from them, then use that IP address instead of the text, "CANADIAN PHARNACY" in that same filter...

[ljc31032]

And how would i set that up? can you show me how? lol do i use the regex option for ip? or just add that instead of canadian pharnacy?

[gingbat]

No, exact same filter, but replace: CANADIAN PHARNACY with the users IP, eg: 161.81.81.91 or whatever it is... you can check the IP addresses in MWpro by clicking the email, then just above the preview pane click "Show email info">>Source tab.
