# antispam:plugin:fromenamespoof

Perform various tests to detect spoof attempts using the From: header name section.

```
warden --task=antispam:plugin:fromenamespoof
```

| Option | Value | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| `--fns_extrachars` | <digit> | 50 | The closeness when matching the From:addr and From:name. |
| `--fns_check` | <0\|1\|2> | 1 | Allows you to adjust the level of checking. By default FromNameSpoof will ignore the TLD when testing if From:addr is spoofed. |
| `--fns_ignore_headers` | <string1,string2> |  | Skip emails that have these headers present. |
| `--fns_ignore_headers_add` | <string> |  | Add a single entry to fns\_ignore\_headers. |
| `--fns_ignore_headers_del` | <string> |  | Remove a single entry from fns\_ignore\_headers. |
| `--fns_ignore_dkim` | <string> |  | Skip emails that have been DKIM signed by specific senders. |
| `--fns_ignore_dkim_add` | <string> |  | Add a single entry to fns\_ignore\_dkim. |
| `--fns_ignore_dkim_del` | <string> |  | Remove a single entry from fns\_ignore\_dkim. |
| `--default` | <yes> |  | Reset all settings to their default values. |
| `--default_option` | <option> |  | Reset a specific setting to its default value. |
| `--reload` | <yes> |  | Reload the service after saving settings. |

## Examples
