Did they empty their Deleted Items folder after cleaning up their Inbox/Mailbox? If they didn't then they are still using the same amount of space, just in a different folder. HTH.

Mailbox limits
Running Exchange Server 2007 When OWA users reach mailbox limits they are being denied access to their mailboxes. Is this by design or is there a setting I am over looking?

Re: [JUNK] problem with messagelabs
Hi, At my site I use Ninja to spam filter. It can't be a station that is infected because the public IP is dedicated to the mail server using a static NAT. The workstations are actually using another IP to hit the internet. As for the headers, the only data I had from MessageLabs was the 3 samples I pasted in the original post. I searched the message-id and some keywords on my exchange servers but can't find anything so they are not sent through our server. Thanks.

Sunbelt Announces Ninja Blade - The Barracuda Killer
Hi All, Here is one of my infamous, genuine 100% commercial messages ! ;-D The subject essentially said it all. We built a very high quality appliance, with carrier-grade software, using a Dell server.

Check out the microsite we built for our new 'Blade': http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/rd/?id=080117BL-NINJABLADE Warm regards, Stu PS, If you want to play with the actual interface, you need to fill out the 'request eval' form, and in the auto-return email will be a link with a username and password so you can see how it looks.

RE: Sunbelt Announces Ninja Blade - The Barracuda Killer
I think in general you'll find that Ninja has everything you need, nothing you don't. Feature comparison checklists abound, but the product is focused on delivering high quality email filtering. As we continue development, more bells and whistles will come out. To me, the standout features on this product is a) the pricing (personally, I think it's way too low, and we don't make much on these things), b) Dell hardware, with 4-hour onsite service free with every box and b) the quality of the underlying engines.

RE: Sunbelt Announces Ninja Blade - The Barracuda Killer
Not to disparage, but a couple of friends and went through the interface of the online demo and were surprised to find a bunch of abilities not there. Is the demo up-to-date with the production release? I read through the complete datasheet and this looks pretty low end from a software feature standpoint. As long as it doesn't NDR by default on dictionary attacks I could recommend this as a 'cuda replacement. It will probably be fine for small and the low-end medium size shops, but they will have to add a lot more functionality to compete successfully with the Ironports and the Can-It Pros of the world. Non customizable file extension filtering is the most glaring defect I see. There's a lot more that seems similarly limited. Docs are decent, but it would be nice to see some wording in the setup docs to steer the clueless towards better practices such as NOT having disclaimers. Low end shops would probably also appreciate some exchange hand holding WRT smart hosts setup and etc... I guess (for around 20 aliases) $1500 would be reasonable for the 500 model w/ a year of 24x7x365 support and 4hr replacement. Maybe $500 per year after that for support. my 2¢ ~JasonG -- ~ Ninja Email Security with Cloudmark Spam Engine Gets Image Spam ~ ~ http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Ninja~

Good points. Other best practices - no catchall accounts, and no NDRs for non-existent accounts, or rather, just issue a 5xx response and don't accept the message.

Re: Exchange 2000 OWA is open.
There is evidence in the Exchange security log that unwanted folks are trying to gain access via OWA and they want it to stop. As long as OWA is freely accessible, it WILL be attacked. If the business owners want it to stop, OWA _HAS_ to not be available publicly. An SSL VPN would take care of this, as it forces the authentication through a web accessible technology before anything else can occur. ISA would do something similar. In both cases, you're just moving the point of attack.

Non customizable file extension filtering is the most glaring defect I see. There's a lot more that seems similarly limited. Docs are decent, but it would be nice to see some wording in the setup docs to steer the clueless towards better practices such as NOT having disclaimers. Low end shops would probably also appreciate some exchange hand holding WRT smart hosts setup and etc... I guess (for around 20 aliases) $1500 would be reasonable for the 500 model w/ a year of 24x7x365 support and 4hr replacement. Maybe $500 per year after that for support. my 2¢ ~JasonG -- ~ Ninja Email Security with Cloudmark Spam Engine Gets Image Spam ~ ~ http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Ninja~ ~ Ninja Email Security with Cloudmark Spam Engine Gets Image Spam ~ ~ http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Ninja~
RE: Sunbelt Announces Ninja Blade - The Barracuda Killer
Hi Jason, It does not NDR a dictionary attack. At the connection layer, the security and functionality is essentially identical to that supported in the MessageSystems carrier suite MTA, since it's the same product (we figured, if it's good enough for Verizon) Not all the functionality is exposed in the UI, partly because this is the first release, and partly because we locked down the config to keep it manageable without having a full time admin on it.

There is evidence in the Exchange security log that unwanted folks are trying to gain access via OWA and they want it to stop. Put it on a non-standard port and distribute shortcuts via logon scripting. That'll stop most of the worms at least (is it still codered you're seeing).

Re: Mailbox Count
Servers are on three year lease. The other Exchange admin and I timed it this way on purpose. If they won't let us upgrade, we can add new systems into the cluster with little interruption. Routing group servers are easier. Well, we knew E2k7 was going to be a swing upgrade so we planned to use this as a 'best time is _now_' argument. We had some other delayed projects and a surprise project that ate into our initial window, but we have high hopes management will let us. Our direct manager is convinced, when we get a more realistic view of the near term workload then business justifications will go forth :) Steven On Jan 17, 2008 11:22 AM, Campbell, Rob [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Maybe you can talk them into at least replacing what's on the perimeter with an Edge and Hub Transport server, even if they're not ready to start upgrading the mailbox servers yet. -Original Message- From: Steven Peck [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, January 17, 2008 1:13 PM To: MS-Exchange Admin Issues Subject: Re: Mailbox Count ahh...

RE: Sunbelt Announces Ninja Blade - The Barracuda Killer
Be wary of any product that claims to be a 'killer' of other products. It reeks of mediocrity or an inferiority complex.

Excellent, maybe a UI improvement is in order for a future release, this should be an obvious and easy to change feature (like right there on that page with the three levels as a 4th option with a customize... button). Thanks for the quick replies, that's a good sign. :) ~JasonG -- ~ Ninja Email Security with Cloudmark Spam Engine Gets Image Spam ~ ~ http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Ninja~
RE: Sunbelt Announces Ninja Blade - The Barracuda Killer
Time will tell William, if it works as well as Ninja and removes it off the servers for larger installs than by jove...its good enough.. If there support is as good as they are with everything else than I am not worried about getting issues resolved. Will it be as refined as Ironport in rev 1...nah... but for the price am I willing to deal with functionality over form...yes. I do remember some reviews saying that the Motorola Q would be the BB killer...We all know how that turned out. I think Sunbelt will have a better turn out here by far than that.
