Location (IP) Blocking

Overview

IP Blocking allows the blocking of emails that originate from certain locations. IP Blocking only works if you are receiving mail directly by the emailAI Pro SMTP Server.

IP blocking will also attempt to identify emails retrieved by POP and send them to spam if there on the block list. The sender of the email is also black listed.

This is a useful feature as many companies and organisation only deal with certain countries and would not get emails from certain parts of the world or countries where SPAM maybe a large source. The White List also over rides the IP Block so mail can still be received from certain people even from a blocked location.
