How to block and allow domain in spam filter

Hello

    I had add tow policy in spam filter 

     1 . Allow domain and some sender

             this policy add some sender and domain in allow list .block list empty

     2. Block domain and some sender

            this policy add some sender and domain in block list .allow list empty . in this policy i try add block email test@gmail.com 

     --> But when I try login to gmail with user test@gmail.com and send to email in my domain then it still can received email .I think it must block all email from this email address (test@gmail.com)

           so can order policy process it only process top policy ?

           please any one help me

    Yes, this is the final recommendation if multiple spam policies are not working.

    Keep the default spam policy to send to junk and add a rule to quarantine mail from the explicit domains/users.

    Can you test this?

        I would try by promoting the block rule to the highest priority. As per the article above you can also set the severity of the rule.

        Hope that answers your question.

        Best, Chris
