Build ID: 20150812163655
Steps to reproduce:
Checked email
Actual results:
Retrieved email including all kinds of spam with invalid From: addresses.
EX:
From: Oil Change Coupons <mail@info.mund us upp ortc re atio ns.c om>
See all of those spaces in the domain portion of the address? This ensures that filtering won't work.
Expected results:
Emails with invalid From: addresses should be automatically deleted.
You could even take this a step further and check the MX record for the sender's domain. If it doesn't exist, delete it.
In my sister's case, this would lead to a minimum of 60% reduction in spam.
