One way would be to look up the IP address ranges associated with those areas and block access to and from them with your firewall.

Looking at the headers, I see various actual senders, many coming from domains ending in .ru, or .pl, etc. Is there a way of blocking e-mails from these foreign domains? None of my users have legitimate business with anyone in Russia, or Poland, or any other foreign country. I tried setting this up under Sender Filtering, by putting the following in, for example: *...@*.pl Is there a different way of putting this in? I notice that the instructions for Sender Filtering says to block messages "claiming" to be from the following:, but these messages are actually "claiming" to be from the user, not what is actually in the header. Is there a different way of filtering these messages? There's nothing in the subject line that is keying the IMF, or my Symantec Mail Security for Microsoft Exchange.
