Thus adding this value to the spam score could help catch some spam messages that might otherwise slip through undetected.

You can then use the Content Filter to search for messages with this header and do with them as you please. You can also use the &quot;<\/span><span class=\"f_ControlIndent\" style=\"font-style: italic;\">Auto-filter block-listed mail into user\'s spam folder<\/span><span class=\"f_ControlIndent\">&quot; option below to filter messages automatically into each user\'s spam folder. Check this box if you wish MDaemon to refuse messages from block-listed IP addresses rather than flag them.<\/span><\/p>\n\r<div style=\"text-align: left; text-indent: 0; padding: 0 0 0 0; margin: 0 3.0625rem 0.8750rem 3.0000rem;\"><table style=\"background-color:#ffffe6; border:solid thin #000000; border-spacing:0;\">\n\r<tr>\n\r<td style=\"vertical-align:top; width:3.1250rem; height:3.1250rem; padding:0.3125rem; border:none\"><p class=\"p_NoFormat\"><img style=\"margin:0;width:3.1250rem;height:3.1250rem;border:none\" src=\".\/images\/lightbulb_on_50_yback.gif\"\/><\/p>\n\r<\/td>\n\r<td style=\"vertical-align:top; padding:0.3125rem; border:none\"><p class=\"p_Notes\"><span class=\"f_Notes\">Because some IP addresses can be block-listed by mistake, you should exercise caution before choosing to refuse messages rather than simply flagging them. It is also worth noting that in addition to flagging a message, you can adjust its spam score based on the DNS-BL results via the <\/span><span class=\"f_Notes\" style=\"font-style: italic;\">DNS-BL match adds this many points to the spam score<\/span><span class=\"f_Notes\"> option located on the <a href=\"sf_spam_filtering.html\" class=\"topiclink\">Spam Filter<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n\r<\/td>\n\r<\/tr>\n\r<\/table>\n\r<\/div>\n\r<p class=\"p_ControlHeading2\" style=\"page-break-after: avoid;\"><span class=\"f_ControlHeading2\">...and respond with \'Message\' rather than \'user unknown\'<\/span><\/p>\n\r<p class=\"p_ControlIndent2\"><span class=\"f_ControlIndent2\">Click this option if you want the specific Message you have assigned to the <a href=\"dns-bl_hosts.html\" class=\"topiclink\">DNS-BL Host<\/a> to be passed during the SMTP session whenever an IP address is found to be listed. Otherwise, a &quot;user unknown&quot; message will be passed instead. This option is only available if you have elected to use the &quot;<\/span><span class=\"f_ControlIndent2\" style=\"font-style: italic;\">SMTP server should refuse mail from block-listed IPs<\/span><span class=\"f_ControlIndent2\">&quot; option above.<\/span><\/p>\n\r<p class=\"p_ControlHeading\" style=\"page-break-after: avoid;\"><span class=\"f_ControlHeading\">Auto-filter block-listed mail into user\'s spam folder<\/span><\/p>\n\r<p class=\"p_ControlIndent\"><span class=\"f_ControlIndent\">Click this option and a &quot;Junk E-mail&quot; IMAP folder will be created for all future user accounts that you add to MDaemon. MDaemon will also create a mail filter for each of those users, which will search for the <\/span><span style=\"font-family: \'Times New Roman\',Times,Georgia,serif;\">X-MDDNSBL-Result<\/span><span class=\"f_ControlIndent\"> header and then place messages containing that header into the user<\/span><span style=\"font-family: \'Times New Roman\',Times,Georgia,serif; color: #010100;\">\'<\/span><span class=\"f_ControlIndent\">s spam folder. When you click this option you will also be asked whether or not you would like MDaemon to create this folder and filter for each of your already existing user accounts. See <\/span><span class=\"f_ControlIndent\" style=\"font-style: italic;\">Auto-generating a Spam Folder and Filter for Each Account<\/span><span class=\"f_ControlIndent\"> below.<\/span><\/p>\n\r<h3 class=\"p_Heading3\" style=\"page-break-after: avoid;\"><a id=\"auto-generatingaspamfolder\" class=\"hmanchor\"><\/a><span class=\"f_Heading3\">Auto-generating a Spam Folder and Filter for Each Account<\/span><\/h3>\n\r<p class=\"p_BodyText\"><span class=\"f_BodyText\">MDaemon can automatically create a &quot;Junk E-mail&quot; IMAP mail folder for each account and generate a mail filter that will move messages into that folder whenever<\/span><span class=\"f_BodyText\"> it finds the <\/span><span class=\"f_T_Code\">X-MDDNSBL-Result<\/span><span class=\"f_BodyText\"> header. Whenever you click the <\/span><span class=\"f_BodyText\" style=\"font-style: italic;\">Auto-filter block-listed mail into user\'s spam folder<\/span><span class=\"f_BodyText\"> option, you will be presented with the option to create the folder and accompanying filter for all accounts. Simply choose “yes” on the dialog to create the folders and filters. Although not foolproof, this is an easy and generally reliable way to help your users quickly identify spam email messages—it can effectively prevent spam email from being mixed in with all of their legitimate email. They will only occasionally need to review the contents of their spam folder just to make sure that an important message doesn\'t accidentally get put there (which may sometimes occur). When creating the folders and filters for your accounts, if MDaemon finds that an account already has a filter that checks for the existence of the <\/span><span class=\"f_T_Code\">X-MDDNSBL-Result<\/span><span class=\"f_BodyText\"> header then no action will be taken and no filter will be created for that account. If you want the name of the IMAP folder to be something other than &quot;Junk E-mail&quot;, you can change the default setting by editing the <\/span><span class=\"f_BodyText\" style=\"font-style: italic;\">Default spam folder name<\/span><span class=\"f_BodyText\"> option located on the <a href=\"preferences_system.html\" class=\"topiclink\">System<\/a> screen under <\/span><span class=\"f_MenuPath\">Setup » Preferences<\/span><span class=\"f_BodyText\">.<\/span><\/p>\n\r<p class=\"p_ControlHeading\" style=\"page-break-after: avoid;\"><span class=\"f_ControlHeading\">&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\r"
