Hi I’m trying to block email addresses from a particular domain - from which we seem to receive multiple spam user accounts per hour sigining up. They come from .jil.kr where can be one of some 20 or so names I’ve seen so far. I tried adding jil.kr but that doesn’t match, so then tried *.jil.kr …

[image] Alex_Harrington: Is it possible to add an entry for *.jil.kr? Yes, simply add jil.kr as I believe it enforces for all subdomains.

Ok, let me know if it does not work. It should, if not we will make it work!

So with jil.kr in the email domain blacklist, we just had a signup from vil7421@stock.jil.kr so it doesn’t appear to work at present. Also just now another from fdzr2860@bank.jil.kr and another from prvhu5960@site.jil.kr Sorry!

It must be considering everything after the @ to be the domain as opposed to “ends with” Depending on how many variations are possible you’ll be playing whack-a-mole without some form of regex here.

@techapj please make it so that this does a simple exact match, and then a ‘period ends with’ match on the string. So if someone enters jil.kr in the email domain blacklist it will match all these: foo.jil.kr bar.jil.kr jil.kr but it should not match mejil.kr

Okay, made it so: https://github.com/discourse/discourse/pull/3463
