Blocking email addresses

Hi,

Quick question, I have someone that keeps emailing me and I do not want to receive those emails... my server is debian (woody) using spamassasin to filter the junk mail...

I think I know that the blacklist might be where I can put this email address for my server to refuse the email... but i'm just not 100% sure if it is, and if so, which blacklist file.?

thanks ahead,
Matt.

I haven't done blacklisting on exim because I do it on procmail. But, if you want it done on exim, here's a howto that I found just searching on the web:

Good luck.

My favourite brute force is in /etc/mail/access with 'goaway@ 550 Spam not accepted'

Depends on how it's installed but if it'w with mimedefang you might try to 'locate sa-mimedefang.cf', there is some blacklist whitelist stuff there.
