Email blocking from a wildcard domain in Plesk

We can set up email blocking in Plesk, the web hosting control panel software, to restrict receiving emails from a wildcard domain.

A wildcard domain is one that has a wildcard character (*) in its name and allows any subdomain or email address under that domain to match the pattern.

How to block email from a wildcard domain Plesk?

In Plesk, we may use the following general methods to block email from a wildcard domain:

1. Firstly, log in as an administrator to the Plesk control panel.
2. Go to the “Mail” section. This section’s precise position may differ based on the Plesk version and interface theme we’re using.
3. After that, choose the domain for which we want to set email blocking. This might be the domain from which we wish to restrict emails coming from a wildcard domain.
4. Look for the “Mail Settings” or “Mail Settings & Management” option in the domain settings. To view the email management options for the specified domain, click on it.
5. After that, look for “Mail Filters” or “Spam Filter” as options. To manage the email filtering rules, click on it.
6. We will often find an option to add a new filter rule or manage current rules under the email filtering settings.

   Create a new filter rule to prevent email from a wildcard domain from being sent.
7. Configure the filter rule to accept emails from any domain. This is commonly accomplished by supplying the relevant criteria, such as the “From” or “Sender” field of the email header, and matching the required pattern with wildcard characters.
8. After that, set the filter rule’s action to block or reject matched emails. This operation guarantees that any email sent to the inbox from the wildcard domain defined in the filter rule is banned.
9. Finally, save the filter rule and turn it on to enable the blocking mechanism.

We may set Plesk to restrict emails from a wildcard domain by following these instructions. It enables us to manage the emails we receive and block communications from specified wildcard domains.
