[cobalt-users] Someone is using my server to spam :<



I'm getting all sorts of problem emails in the admin account on my Qube2 :|
Below is the header of one such posting, which shows that they are using a
sub-domain of lion-breath.com.  Now, the Qube2 is setup to "Receive email
addressed to these hosts/domains" and in the box alongside this parameter is
"lion-breath.com"....  If I leave this box empty, then local internal email
gets routed to our ISP, and the 15 min collection delay becomes very
apparent when sending mail to colleagues.

Is there any way I can bar people from using sub-domains of lion-breath.com
in the control panel of the Qube2?

Could it as easy as putting *.lion-breath.com in the "Block email from these
users/hosts/domains" ? Or will it mean that I have to enter each sub-domain
in this box as and when they start using other subs?

Yours, very confused :|
