How to set custom filter rules through filter file

Create a file named "customfilter" in /var/webuzo/conf/exim/. You can add the custom filter rules in the file. After adding the rules, execute the command webuzo --exim_rebuild_conf from the terminal as the root user.

Sample custom filter rule

Below is an example of custom filter rule which blocks mails from user@example.com.

if ("$h_from:" contains "user@example.com")
then fail
endif

Note: If custom filter rules are set by both the methods, the one set in the Mail Settings will be given first preference.
