Blacklist / Whitelist and Message Filters in Webmail

Note regarding message filters:   Message filters are an independent feature and are available in both classic and modern interfaces.  With a message filter, you can effectively blacklist an address, but you cannot whitelist.

 All changes made in webmail are effective immediately 

The Proper Way to Whitelist / Blacklist a Domain

• Use the domain listed in the Return-path header (To see this in WebMail, right click on the message and click 'Show Original')
  
  
• For example, suppose we want to whitelist or blacklist a newsletter from 6pm.com which happens to have the following headers:
  

  Return-path: bounce-17_HTML-14994285-32896-1058807-6610@bounce.email.6pm.com
  From: "6pm.com" <email@email.6pm.com>
  Subject: Nine West + Hush Puppies + UGG and more!
  
  

• The correct string to add is bounce.email.6pm.com. Just using 6pm.com or email.6pm.com  will not achieve the desired result
  
  
• Strings containing syntax like @6pm.com or *.6pm.com won't work either
  
  
  • The @ and * symbols do not act as wildcard characters, since technically they are used in valid email addresses
