An opt-out list blocking certain outgoing internet addresses?

Due to the recently implemented CAN-SPAM Act of 2003, we now have a requirement to ensure that certain email addresses cannot be used in outgoing mail. I need to just block certain email addresses, not actual people from sending mail out (for example, no email can be sent to rover@aol.com from anyone in our company).

Has anyone heard of a product that provides this functionality?

Thanks,

Yeah…Lotus Notes.

You can use server mail rules, or use the configuration document’s SMTP Outbound Controls.

Block specific addresses using server mail rules - select the “To” field and enter the address.

block entire domains - You can use mail rules for this as well, or open the server’s configuration document and go to the Router/Smtp tab, then Restrictions and Controls, then SMTP Outbound Controls.

At the bottom, look at the “Deny messages to recipients in the following internet domains or hostnames” field.

Sorry if I wasn’t clear in my original posting. I know about the native Domino solutions and can use them in the short-term, but this list could become thousands/millions of email addresses and the native Domino solutions certainly can’t handle that.

Jeffrey,

I have the same exact issue. Did you ever find a solution?
