 | Senior Member with 128 posts. | | | | Spam Mail I've recently discovered that i'm getting spam mail approximately 3 every day! They're advertising adult themes!
What can i do to stop these spam mails coming through my Exchange server?
Preferably i'd prefer not to use an application, or 3rd party at that! Is there a script or a setting within Exchange or an add-on or download provided by Microsoft?
Any help guys, much appreciated!

I followed that tutorial, however, i am stuck when it comes to entering a domain as the emails are not coming from just one domain, they are different each time!
Any ideas how to solve this?

Or start denying IP address blocks at your Internet Gateway.
I had a whole list of IP address rannges that I used at one time. I think I still have them saved somewhere.
Used them in my /etc/hosts.deny file on my Linux Server.
I had WordPress also running on a Windows server and Wordpress has this capability built-in to deny by ip address ranges.
But you can do the same thing on Windows Servers with IPsec. | | Senior Member with 128 posts. | | | | How will i find which IP address they are coming from? I'm guessing i can find this information by viewing the Full Header details? I can't seem to find the option to show the Full Header details... I'm using Outlook Web Access - whenever i look for tutorials, for example; how to change a theme, i can never relate to my Outlook! I'm using Exchange 2003.
I can't find where to see message details! | | Distinguished Member with 14,983 posts. | | Join Date: Apr 2003 Location: 1265 Lombardi Ave Experience: IIAHYAYCESA,YAADA! | | Posted via Mobile Device
Never used outlook but I am sure if you Google search you will find the answer. | | Senior Member with 272 posts. | | Join Date: Dec 2008 Location: India Experience: Advanced | | you can try 3rd party tools mentioned there like policy patrol /gfi mail security | | Senior Member with 128 posts. | | | | cheers, i'll check that and report back soon! | | Senior Member with 128 posts. | | |

#10 | I still can't view fullheaders of email messages. I installed the update that supposidly would display a 'detail' button on OWA but still can't see this.
I don't want to use 3rd party applications because:
1. i don't want to have to pay more money
2. i don't want anything slugging or anything too restrictive
and would prefer to stick with built in applications, tools or configurations.
I'm still looking.
Thanks for all your suggest so far!

#12 | Hi Swuashman, I can't remember which one i used as i can't see any other reference to another site on here, but i'm sure i didn't use Leederbyshire, maybe i did.
Anyway, the download was called "OWA-View-Headers-Exchange-2003". The readme included:
This OWA mod will allow you to view message headers and IMF SCL in OWA 2003.
It works only with OWA 2003 SP2, and it only works with the 'Premium' OWA interface.
Locate your util_View.js file. At the time of writing, it is in
C:\Program Files\Exchsrvr\exchweb\6.5.7651.60\controls
although this will change with future service packes and updates.
MAKE A BACKUP COPY, and then replace it with the one in this archive.
Your Web clients must clear their browser cache (to delete the old .js file).
The next time they use OWA, they should see 'View Headers' and 'View SCL'
added to the pop-up menu when right-clicking a message.
Lee.
If you have reference to a fix that actually works from your experience i will give that a go!

#13 | Try ASSP
It's an open source Spam filter running under perl....windows or linux....
It's sits in between the inet (or ISP's smart host) and your Edge/Hub transport....
Works well....i'm running it on 3 virtual machines with a MySQL server holding the spam database... | | Senior Member with 128 posts. | | |

#14 | Hey,
Thanks Mordreneth, that seems like a good idea, but i can't find the file 'assp.mod.zip'. The provided download link is broken! I'm looking on Google for it...
Do you have a copy of the file to hand? | | Junior Member with 24 posts. | | |
