Environment

GWAVA all versions.

Situation

GWAVA blocking all mail.

Resolution

Watch out for entries such as

*@*.gov

GWAVA reads this simply as: "*@*"

To block anything from .gov and all subdomains, use

*.gov

The asterisk will act as a wildcard for anything at all before the .gov.

Cause

Inadvertent use of *@*: in an Address Block
