A Blog Of Tech Support
Q&A's
Regarding
Setup of Regular Expression Filters in cPanel.
Or
How
to
Stop Top Level Email Spammer IPs With Regular
Expression
Filters in cPanel.

The sister page
to this blog describes
the ultimate goals (neprimer.com/ePress/articles/2010/IP-FiltersRegEx.html)
and refinement(s) to date. This page will start
fresh
and blog all of the tech support Q&A that will
setup the
User Level Filters in
cPanel. I have no connection with any of
the 3rd
party software companies nor any
authority to directly inquire of them. They only provide
support to licensed users.
Since cPanel seems to be the last
and most difficult to implement, PART
4 of 4 will be the start of this page
with the other PARTs in
descending order.

The following
headers are from the only email to make it to the /Junk
folder per cPanel filters. This after about 2+
weeks. The problem with this is that there are no "BAD IPs"
in the headers so it should not have been redirected to /.Junk.

A
prior day's
telecon w/HostGator (HG) revealed that cPanel gives
me the choice to
"Redirect
email to folder" /.Trash at User Level
or "Redirect email to folder" tried staff3??
at Account
Level Filters no good.
Also by filling in the Redirect field
with anything but the
drop down selection will create a folder that will not show up in the
account and has to be subscribed to in
order to see if the
filter is working. These new folders can be seen /deleted
from
the cPanel File Manager. |

Since email "reply" reading format, typically, is: "reply" on top
of old start
here and read "up".

Once USA
jurisdiction is established
follow up emails to the appropriate "abuse" authorities can put a stop
to spammers and abusers. |
