HOW TO CONFIGURE

DNSBL Servers:

In this place you can add/delete DNSBL servers (relays.ordb.org, bl.spamcop.net, ...).

Add server

To add a new server you must write the address in the box and push the ‘+’ button.
If a server is checked will be used the next time a email arrive to your server. If it is unchecked the program ignore it and go to the next in the list.

Delete server

To delete a server you can write the name or click on their line, then click the ‘-’ button and it will be removed from the list.

You can modify the order (priority) of servers calls selecting one and using the ‘up’ and ‘down’ buttons.
A list of valid servers (thanks Mike :-)) are in:

Import / Export / Clear List Servers

You can import/export servers from/to a TXT file (a example file is in the package).


Trusted IP config:

You can do that the IPs will not be tested in the DNSBL check if they are in any ArgoSoft Mail Server trusted IP range. This will perform a little very quickly check proccess.
To activate this function check the checkbox in this tab.

Only two explanations for this feature:

  • When a email is received and proccesed, if it go through any server in the trusted IP ranges this email isn’t declared a valid email automatically. The trusted ranges are only for leave without DNS check certain trusted IP ranges and accelerate the execution of the filter (see the detailed log of the filter).
  • You can use the Trusted IP ranges from the Server Extension inclusive if the Trusted IP ranges from Argosoft Mail Server hare disabled (but defined).



AVG Antivirus Config:

Active the checkbox to perform a simple antivirus check of all incoming/outgoing messages.
(Thanks to Alex “www.sssolutions.net” for the VirusEx sample code).
