Hi Experts,
Found that the 4 spam emails I received have similar header info as below:
the hops shown look like :
Received: from wrqvqthz.outbound-mail.sendgrid.net (149.72.71.14) by ….
Received: from wrqvdrfk.outbound-mail.sendgrid.net (149.72.213.241) by ...

Received: from wrqvqthz.outbound-mail.sendgrid.net (149.72.71.14) by ...
senders look like:
From: DHL Express<bantuanspe@commercedc.com.my>
From: Outlook! Voice <asics.standard6@kingmaker-footwear.com>
From: Ems<bantuanspe@commercedc.com.my>
From: DHL Express calvin@solomonseedgroup.com
my question: seems spams use different fake sender addresses, I can't block spam using sender email address, so how to use other ways to block spam like these, how about the FortiGate -Black white list and IP/Netmask?
will FortiGate check all the IP addresses found in the header of SMTP email against the specified IP address black/white list, if the IP of any hops matched by the blacklist, will the email be blocked?
what I need to achieve is to block as much spam as possible with better ways to do it.
Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks and regards,
pfu
