Has anyone played with using the filtering capabilities of e2k to filter out domain names and anonymous messages? A quick stab at it caused messages to stack up in the directory lookup queue (though it did drop the filtered messages appropriately). After removing the filter from the default SMTP server the messages that were not filtered out did come through....

They're NDRs, and probably NDRs trying to go to the faked addresses used by spammers. Feel free to delete. -Peter -----Original Message----- From: Karon Miller [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, August 13, 2002 9:50 To: Exchange Discussions Subject: Anonymous messages in the outbound queue I've tried several things to prevent messages getting stuck in the Outbound queue of the IMS it's like someone is relaying SPAM off of us. I've installed Trend Micro's InterScan 5 Messaging Security Suite and tried to block anonymous messages that way. Are they NDR's or messages to user's that are no longer here? Normally I just delete them everyday but I'm concerned that we're being a relay of somekind. Is this normal for Exchange 5.5 Thanks!
