Blocking IPs on Mail Servers

Last modified: 27 Dec 2007

WARNING: This documentation covers Parallels H-Sphere versions up to 3.1. For the latest up-to-date Parallels H-Sphere documentation, please proceed to the official Parallels site.

To fight spam or block unwanted emails, you can block specific IPs from sending you mail. The incoming messages from this IP will bounce back to the sender.

To deny relay to specific IP:

1. Go to E.Manager -> Servers - > Mail Servers:



2. At the bottom of the page choose mail server from the drop-down box.
3. Enter necessary IP/subnet.
4. Enter note, if necessary, and click the Add button.
The blocked IP will appear in the Mail Server Relays section



You can remove the blocked IP from the list at any moment by clicking the Trash icon on the right.

Before H-Sphere 3.0 RC 4 this form also allowed adding Mail relay.
