Kill File for a List

How to get here

The "kill.lst" file is used by the List-Server to deny access to local mailing lists. It lets you to specify mail addresses or mail hosts that you do not want to post to the list.

Each list has its own "kill.lst" file located in top directory "IMail\domain \lists\listname" (where listname is the directory for the particular list) and applies only to the specified list.

Adding Entries

In the KILL.LST file, enter one entry per line in either of the following formats:

userid@host

For example, to deny access from a user mail account, you would enter: fred@widget.com

@host

For example, to deny access to all users from the mail host widget.com , you would enter: @widget.com

@*partialhost

For example, to deny mail from any mail host ending in widget.com , enter: @*widget.com . This will reject all mail from widget.com, bluewidget.com, nifty.widget.com, etc.

Note: The kill files for lists are different from the SMTP kill file.
