To reduce the testing time you can also use this to view what the SCL of those messages are.
http://blogs.msdn.com/exchange/archive/2004/05/26/142607.aspx That way you can make changes to the website and see what it does to the classification of the message. Making sure you have a reverse lookup for the SMTP server sending the message, increasing the amount of text, reducing the number of URLs, and having the subject makes sense and no having too many numbers in it are good things to check to lower the SCL rating (I haven't seen too much on the inner-workings of SmartScreen so I am just going on what other filters do) Changing from Delete from Reject should not change the behavior of white listing. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Horner, Josh Sent: Thursday, June 03, 2004 10:52 AM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: IMF question No, I jumpted right up from 6 to 9. I think I will try to back it down to 8, test, then 7 and test. The form is very simple. Just 5 or lines of text like name, address, comments, etc.. I was thinking of changing the behavior to delete from reject (don't' want to archive). Would I then be able to trust the IP of the webserver?

You may also be able to modify the page that sends the mail so that it doesn't get rated as high. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Horner, Josh Sent: Thursday, June 03, 2004 10:27 AM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: IMF question That's what I thought. I'm going with (unfortunately) a more lenient gateway threshold (9) and staying with (4) for the store threshold. Now I just need to upgrade 10 outlook 2000 clients to 2003 so they can use the junk e-mail feature. I really liked the fact that I could reject spam and make the sending mail server responsible for the NDR.

Jason -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Horner, Josh Sent: Thursday, June 03, 2004 10:46 AM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: IMF question IMF set on 6 at the gateway is rejecting (as designed) what it *thinks* is spam. We have a simple web form on a public site to e-mail comments to one of the employees mailboxes. IMF is blocking these website comment e-mails. Can I whitelist the sending address somehow? Or some other way? Or do I have to raise the gateway blocking level until it will let is past?
