Blocking forged From: email

Issue #231 resolved
Former user created an issue

Hi,

I'm not using the PRO version; however I could not find a way to block inbound email for a given domain that has clearly forged From: header

For example; I accept email for mydomain.com

I have several or more accounts for mydomain.com

It should (I believe) only be valid for authenticated users intenrally (by TLS or IP) to relay mail; but on the inbound anything with <forged_user>@mydomain.com should in theory be entirely blocked.

The way this works with Google Apps for example is their servers verify (once) that the email you want to use in the From: is actually owned by you by sending a configuration email first with the assumption that if you can read/access email from the account you want to appear from that that's okay.
