rule. What should be done to enable these changes to be used in the
message filtering process?

Figure 19) to accept the changes.
2. click the accept button in the Rule properties window (see
Figure 11) to accept the changes made to the filtering rule.

As a result, all changes in the filter configuration will be saved, Configuration

5.2.5. Working with lists. The
e-mails, ip addresses, dns blacklists
tabs
E-mail and IP addresses lists as well as DNS-based RBL lists are used in the
filtering rules (see para 5.2.1 - 5.2.4, pages 48 - 59) to set conditions related to a
group of addresses (rather than to a separate address) that should be processed
the same way. Sometimes this group may be very large, e.g., a list of e-mail
spam senders or mail servers from which spam arrives. This list may include
hundreds or even thousands of records.
