Re: Blocking certain addresses.

Rob,

       1.) Search notes.net and support.lotus.com with the keyword SPAM...

        2.) Look at Notes.ini entry "SMTPMTA_DENIED_DOMAINS=<FILENAME>"

        3.) Look at Tech Note # 167173 @ support.lotus.net....

        Note, some of this is 4.6.n and you may need the R5 equivalent for
your site....
