Hmail server rules failing

[chuanDK]

Hi Guys


I would like my server only to only accept mail from "no-reply@Mydomain.com" and then forward that mail to "distlist@Mydomain.com" without sending the email to the original receiver of the mail.
But only send the mail to the distlist@Mydomain.com

If the sender of the mail is not "no-reply@Mydomain.com" the server should delete the email.




I have tried to create this rule

from : equals : no-reply@Mydomain.com
to : equals: *

Actions:
Forward email to distlist@Mydomain.com
Delete email


I also tried to split the rules up.

from: equals : no-reply@Mydomain.com
to : not equals: distlist@Mydomain.com

Action Delete Email.

But is does not work.

any suggestions ?

change "equals" to "contains"

"From" is in the format

Code: Select all

"jens vejmand" <vejmand@trafikstyrelsen.dk>

Hi Søren

Thanks for you reply. I really appreciate it

I tried tried to change the "equals" to "contains"

The result is that the original recipient of the mail and the distribution list receives the email.

But I would like to avoid that the original recipient receives the mail. So its just the distribution list that receives the email.


Du you have an idea how to solve that ?

Thanks in advance and best regards ¨

This is how we normally do this... Configure it as a "global" rule.
X-hMailServer-LoopCount keep track of how many times an email is forwarded so we can prevent circular references.
.

If original recipient still receive the email he/she must be on the distlist ...

PS. Yes, I know the rule on the image is not enabled
