RE: Exchange 2003 Connection Filtering
This may or may not help in your situation, but if you are not currently using sender filtering in Exchange 2003, you can use it as a kind of hack to create a white list. You set up sender filtering to Archive filtered messages and Accept messages without notifying the sender. Leave the other two boxes unchecked. You then add the email address to the Senders list, such as *@blackberry.net to white list any email address from the blackberry.net domain. Exchange will move filtered messages to the Filter folder, usually in the mailroot\vsi 1\ folder. You can then manually move the filtered messages to the Pickup folder and it will be delivered, or you can run a scheduled task to move messages periodically.

All our incoming email is handled by our parent company's mail relays. They then pass on any mail intended for our server to my Exchange environment. Does the connection filtering in Exchange 2003 look into the headers of the email to see where the email originated from or does it just check the last connection? If it only see the last connection then this won't help me because all email always appears to come from our parent company's mail relays.

I figure if I can add the Blackberry network range to my connection filter that would prevent them from being tagged as junk mail.
