Hi Dr. X Thanks for the reply. We currently have a spam filter, on our firewall. As well as using it's own rules to filter mail, it can also check against a white/black list server. So what I'd like is a bit of software that can be installed on a server somewhere (preferably NT, but Linux would do) so people can connect to it, maybe via web page, and add their own entries. We did test a product from McAfee, that would install on IIS, you could open a web page, and configure it with mailboxs, then you could add black/white list entries against each mailbox. But it had an issue with adding mailbox entries, where it wouldn't recognise a period in the email address, and according to McAfee it won't be fixed until the next release of their software. If an existing product doesn't exist, I may just write my own web page, that can read/write XML, looking at the McAfee product, it just reads a file with the format: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?> - <MailboxUpdate> - <Mailbox name="user.one@DOMAIN" owner="user.one@DOMAIN" lastUpdate="1139234841" Delete="0"> <DenySender>spam@spam.com</DenySender> <AllowSender>allow.email@DOMAIN.com</AllowSender> </Mailbox> - <Mailbox name="user.two@DOMAIN" owner="user.two@DOMAIN" lastUpdate="1139234869" Delete="0"> <DenySender>spam@spam.com</DenySender> <AllowSender>allow.email@DOMAIN.com</AllowSender> </Mailbox> </MailboxUpdate> If you need anymore info please let me know Ben "Dr.X" <Dr.X@NOSPAMnull.com> wrote in message news:JfIFf.15306$Fw6.14407@tornado.tampabay.rr.com... > "Ben" <bjblackmore@mailhot.com> wrote in message > news:ds7fjv$qnq$1@nwrdmz02.dmz.ncs.ea.ibs-infra.bt.com... >> Hi, >> >> Does anyone know any free white/black list software, that I can install >> in >> our local LAN to allow our users to add email address to a white/black > list? >> >> Cheers >> >> Ben > > I think that would depend on the existing software on your "local LAN". > When > you say local LAN, should it be assumed that you're talking about software > you can install on a local server (possibly mail server)? or do you mean > software you can install on the individual workstations (possibly > integrating with your client software)? > > -Dr.X > >
