<p>hello</p>
<p>I'm still fighting with iptables against this mail-flooding to a
specific user. I don't understand why mails from a specific IP
like <tt>123.45.67.89</tt> still slip thru although they should
be blocked if included within the subnet <tt>123.45.67.0/24</tt>
... I entered</p>
<p>
<meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8">
<tt># iptables -A INPUT -s 123.45.67.0/24 -j DROP -v</tt>
</p>
<p>Reading the table with the following returns:</p>
<p><tt># iptables -L -n -v | grep </tt><tt><tt>123.45.67</tt>.0/24</tt><tt><br>
</tt><tt> 0 0 DROP all -- * *
69.168.97.0/24 0.0.0.0/0</tt><br>
</p>
<p>What am I missing? Does iptables need a special configuration to
be able to block subnets?</p>
Thank you and best regards
