$DNSBLSite and formula code

I have the dnsbl list set to log and tag. On the mail file, I want to add an agent that runs before mail arrives that looks at the mail and if this field is present, moves the mail to another database. I am an admin and not a coder, so I want to use forumula language as I am somewhat familiar with it. I have found this code that will move the mail to a folder - @If(@IsAvailable($DNSBLSite);@AddToFolder(“Junk”;“($Inbox)”);“”)

My question is, how do I move it to another database using the formula language?

The database I want to move it to is called spam and it resides on the same server in the mail folder.

Thanks,

Burt

This is best done with LotusScript. You could maybe use @mailsend and a mailin database but it would be best done with LotusScript code.

Why not learn LotusScript, see our courses at http://www.tlcc.com. You can try a free demo of our Beginner Lotusscript course.

Thanks for your response. Unfortunatley, I don’t want to learn lotus script right now. Right now, I am trying to stop spam. Can you help me regarding the above.

I have successfully been able to use @mailsend and it doesn send an email to the mail in database - however, it is not the current spam email (it still gets delivered) and the user still gets the original email.

Any help would be most beneficial to me.

How about using @DeleteDocument after sending it on? - although the context may have changed to the new document.

On a wider note, why not just log and reject? If anyone does have legitimate e-mail that is blocked, they can always pick up the phone. Wheras transferring all the spam into a ‘spam dump’ will make work for someone to check.

and this product ( http://www.drcc.com/nospamdomino ) will allow you to do all that and more… there are already specific mail rules to handle the RBL tagged items, you can create your own rules if you need to using @functions and you can sync these rules to r5 users or allow them to run as r6 server based rules…

I can’t address your question directly because I’m also an admin and don’t code much. But, we are doing exactly what you want to do. I had one of our developers do a ‘before mail arrives’ agent for us to handle tagged messages.
