Create mail Rules to forwarding emails

    Hello, This might sound stupid but I don't see how to do it otherwise.
    So in our company we're running postscreen + postwhite (thanks to Jesse for all the support provided).
    Everything is running smooth and as expected we're still getting spam but around 3 to 4 per day.
    From this 3 to 4 spam mails, 2 are coming from [email protected].
    So since it is a company mail, we don't really need any incoming .ua mails since we are only providing services to our country.
    On the mail settings I added a mail filter deleting all incoming mail from .ua addresses, which created me a custom rule
    Code:
    if header :regex    ["from"] [".*\.ua$"] {
        discard;
        stop;
    }
    
    This rule has been added to all mail clients which are receiving spams (their mail address are published in the company website).

    Now the problem comes when this same mail address (let's call it [email protected]) which has this rule enable is receiving mail from this [email protected]. This because this address also receives redirected mail from for example [email protected].

    So what happens is, [email protected] sends mail to [email protected] -> gets deleted.
    And if [email protected] sends mail to [email protected] which is forwarded to [email protected] -> is received.
    So I need to create the same rule to [email protected] but how can I achieve this?

    Currently, you filter the from header. Take a look into the email headers of a forwarded email from that address and find out in which other header field you can see the address of the spammer in that case and then create a filter rule for that field too.

    As you can see the incoming mail is from .co.ua which was blocked from the rule posted above. I don't understand how am I still receiving mails from this provider. Did the rule stop working? is there anything missing?
    The worst of this spam is that it wasn't considered spam by the server X-Spam-Status: No, score=1.195 tagged_above=1 required=4.5
