Setup a Special Text String Rule in Xamime PDF Print E-mail

From time to time you may want to setup some special text based rules for xamime to trap "cagey" spam or other unwanted email.

Below is a sample of how to add a Spam Check test for an email which carries a "geocities" http link in its body (These are generally spam). 

Choose an approriate acl to place the rule in.

Add 2 new "Text String Test" as below....

Text = http://.*\.geocities\.com

Comment =  Probably Spam - Geocities Link!!

Test Mode = Deny

 

Text = http://geocities

Comment =  Probably Spam - Geocities Link!!

Test Mode = Deny

The important thing to note is the regexp syntax, especially for special characters.

The above text aims to catch any link which is a subdomain of geocities.com

The reason is that in regex, a * means "any multiple of the -previous- character.

Thanks to Paul Daniels, author of Xamime , for the solution.
