Adding Blacklist and Whitelist Domains

You can configure Secure Ad Hoc Transfer to block (Blacklist) or allow (Whitelist) only specific domains. That is, if you do not want users to send files to or from certain e-mail accounts, you would add that domain to the blacklist. The value applies to e-mail address in the From, To, CC, and BCC fields.

For example:

To configure the blacklist and whitelist

  1. Open the ASP.NET Configuration Settings dialog box. (Refer to Editing the Configuration File (web.config) for the procedure.)

  2. Scroll to EnableEmailFiltering, click it, then click Edit.

  3. In the Edit/Add Application Settings dialog box, type True. Setting this value to True enables white/blacklist filtering options for To/Cc/Bcc e-mail addresses.

  4. Scroll to BlacklistDestinationDomain, click it, then click Edit. By default, no domains are blocked.

  5. In the Edit/Add Application Settings dialog box, type the domain or string to block from being used in the in the SendMail form, then click OK. Separate multiple domains with commas.

  6. Scroll to WhitelistDestinationDomain, click it, then click Edit. By default all domains (*) are allowed.

  7. In the Edit/Add Application Settings dialog box, type the domain or string to allow in the SendMail form, then click OK. Separate multiple domains with commas.

  8. Click OK to save the changes.

When the From, To, CC, or BCC field contains an e-mail address whose domain is blacklisted, a message similar to the following appears:
