I believe you are right. Do not hook up Exchange 5.0 to the Internet without something in between.

I have read almost all I could find on this problem (inc the faq) - this mail list was my last port of call We are running SBS4/exchange 5 sp2 NOT exchange 5.5 The article in the faq and q169683 relate to exch 5.5. I cannot see any routing restrictions tab in the version of each I am running. The article q169683 may help - do I put the # sign in front of the domain I want to re-route (ie under sent to it would look like #mydomain.com <inbound>? For the time being, I have turned off rerouting but I am still getting ndr in the administrators mailbox, plus all the messages in the queue which is putting a strain on resources and preventing legit mail going out. It would be nice if the problem was read properly rather than just being dismissively told to read the faq. Please don't say upgrade to exch 5.5 because it apparently isn't possible if you are running sbs4.

Read it all. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, July 19, 2002 3:22 AM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: exchange 5 relay/spamming I've just started at a new company and their systems are in a bit of a mess. On one site (different domain), they are running NT SBS 4 with exchange 5 sp1. Their mail server is being used as a spam relay. The free upgrade to NT sbs 4.5 (and thus exchange 5.5) has been discontinued in the UK so cannot do that. Installing SBS2K will take too long. I've checked technet and the only article I could find relevant to exchange 5 was q199656 however it doen't make much sense to me. DO i need to install exhc on another server - what if I don't have one? Any ideas anyone? thankns Rob _________________________________________________________________ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Archives: http://www.swynk.com/sitesearch/search.asp To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED] _________________________________________________________________ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Archives: http://www.swynk.com/sitesearch/search.asp To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED] intY has scanned this email for all known viruses (www.inty.com) intY has scanned this email for all known viruses (www.inty.com) _________________________________________________________________ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Archives: http://www.swynk.com/sitesearch/search.asp To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED] _________________________________________________________________ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Archives: http://www.swynk.com/sitesearch/search.asp To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED] _________________________________________________________________ List posting FAQ: http://www.swinc.com/resource/exch_faq.htm Archives: http://www.swynk.com/sitesearch/search.asp To unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Exchange List admin: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
