According to the result, the procedures are:
z
if there is no match in the first list, the next list is checked.
z
if there is no match in the second list either, the email is scanned.
z
if there is a match in the ignore list, the email is not scanned.
z
if there is a match in the scan list, the email is scanned.
The email addresses must have Perl-compatible regular expressions, such as:
/abc/
/^abc/
/xyz/i
/^abc@def\.tld/
Example
:
/etc/avmailgate.ignore
contains the following lines:
/^somebody@somewhere\.tld$/ SR
/^virus@firm/ R
/^abc@def.*\.tld/i
If the address is [email protected], the email is not scanned.
If the recipient address is virus@firm*, the email is not scanned. In this case, the R
flag is optional:
/^virus@firm/ R is equal to /^virus@firm/.
