Easy Remote option for Adding to Spam Filter Blacklist

Hi, wondering if there are any alternative ways to adding an email address to the "Spam Filters / Blacklist" in Cpanel. Currently the only option I see is to log into Cpanel and go to Email / Spam Filters / Show Additional Configurations / Blacklist". Ideally a person could maybe add to blacklist by sending an email or some script that could be run via ssh. Any ideas are much appreciated! Thanks.

  Hey there! If you'd like to manually add email addresses these are located in /home/username/.spamassassin/user_prefs in the following format: blacklist_from address@gmail.com blacklist_from totallyfake@domain.com
  Just create a new line in that format and you'll be all set!

  Awesome! Thank you @cPRex

  
  Did you create a script to automate the process of sending eMail addresses to the blacklist? I was just thinking maybe even forwarding them to an address from a rule in the email app would work.

  Hi @nvrau, Sorry bud. Ended up just editing the file manually as needed via ssh.
