RE: SPAM Deletion
Also, we're Exchange 5.5 SP4 -Original Message- From: WAISEL, HAROLD B [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, January 17, 2002 8:19 AM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: SPAM Deletion We've been hit with a repeating message, whether accidentally or purposely, that we are currently deleting from our MTA queue. There are approximately 25,000 of these messages, interspersed with legitimate messages. Are there any tools that will let me stop the MTA and go after messages based upon author or subject to delete them from the queues. Otherwise, it will be a pretty long morning cleaning this up. In the meantime, we've been able to stop further messages at our TrendMicro gateway.

RE: SPAM Deletion
Ouch! Had a similar issue over xmas but you can add another 0 to that item count CR went nutty on a full hotmail account. Best way I found was to use find files to search for a unique line in the spam and keep on deleting them as they list up in the FF dialogue.

RE: SPAM Deletion
Thanks for your answer. Just to clarify, are you saying to stop the MTA, open up one of the DAT files to find a particular string, and then run Find File against the MTADATA directory in order to search against that string?

RE: SPAM Deletion
But with Q224493, it suggests you run ISSCAN to scan for text/attachments that are already in the IS. If you've been spammed and have messages from xxx to breakfast in your MTA that suggests that they haven't yet reached your IS, so wouldn't it be more appropriate to try and remove them before they hit they do? -Original Message- From: Tom Meunier [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, 18 January 2002 8:06 a.m. To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: SPAM Deletion Isn't Q224493 simpler? -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Posted At: Thursday, January 17, 2002 8:11 AM Posted To: MSExchange Mailing List Conversation: SPAM Deletion Subject: RE: SPAM Deletion OK thanks.
