IFFROM


NAME

iffrom -- check if an incoming mail comes from a given network

SYNOPSIS

iffrom {-l local-network} {network}

DESCRIPTION

iffrom scans the headers of a message in the standard input for the first ``Received'' line, and attempts to match the IP address of the server that contacted the local mail server against the given networks. To exclude ``Received'' lines from relays in the local network, -l may be used to specify local networks.

All networks are to be specified in CIDR notation.

If the message came from one of the networks, iffrom exits 0, otherwise 100. If no ``Received'' line is found, iffrom exits 100.
