attachments", all emails(within the same group)
fetched by the client software will be filtered and
files of any type that are attached will be removed
from the email before reaching the client software.
In the event that the sender is trusted and the
files are removed, this user will have to be
whitelisted. After then, emails from that user or
domain will not be filtered.
NOTE : While
whitelisting a user or domain, RSF will not go through
any of the filtering process. If by mistake a user
is being processed through the filters and files are
removed. Simply go to the "Search and Rescue" window
and fetch the wanted email. This copy or email is kept
untouched by RSF for your convenience up to a maximum
of days you have deterined in the "Config window".

To verifying
if the domain name
and/or the IP address is listed in the internet black
list database. Select which database you wish to
compare the sender's domain/IP address.
Note:
the more database you select the slower your RSF
will become. This is not related to the internal
resource of RSF. It's related to your internet
connection provided by your ISP and the speed the
remote database. If remote database server(DNSBL) is
overwhelmed or off line, RSF will wait till the answer is given or
disconnect from the remote database after 60 seconds.

Black and White listing / Device Access.
Click the Add button or alt+a
For this module, if not explicitly Black listed, then access to the ReSieve
device is granted.
Rule checking order. White listing first, followed by the Black list.
If a rule is matched then the module steps out and does not look at the
remaining rules. ie: White list contains 192.168.0.112 Black list contains
192.168.0.0/255.255.255.0 then, access to ReSieve device will be DENIED to
all IPs withing 192.168.0.0-255 but access will be granted to 192.168.0.112.
Note: This modules is built to not lock the admin out. If any form of rule is
inserted that can / will DENY the admin from accessing the ReSieve device, then
the rule will be automatically removed, giving the admin back a GRANTED
access.(Takes 60 seconds to do so.)
Test your rules so that your legitimate users retains thier GRANTED access.
