How can I block all *.ru mails or tickets?

Same issue.  My team had to delete pages of .ru spam messages this morning.

This subject is discussed elsewhere.

Hi Mark,

Despite implementing it, I don't see a Dispatch'r rule as a solution as ticket numbers are still being incremented, and the system is constantly processing spam and telling me about it... Do you know if Freshdesk is doing anything about it?

Hi Chris,

I fully agree. We are also hit with the same problems. The numbering is completely messed up, and we have had to switch off notifications for new tickets. The only thing the Dispatch'r rule does is avoid having manually to delete all the spam where they can't be easily selected. 

I don't know if FreshDesk is doing anything (I am a customer just like you), but I am not holding my breath...

Hi Mark,

Please see my comments on the other thread - Russian SPAM influx - I think you would also benefit from the 'proactive filter.'

Thanks Chris. I already got it set up yesterday. So far seems to be working.
