I am getting a lot of Foreign Language E-mail.
How or what do I have to do to block this E-mail?
If you were to look at the entire message, how would you know it's
written in a "foreign language"? I'll assume that you really mean "not
written in American English" (which also means that Canadian English,
South African English, British English, etc. are also "foreign
languages").
You could look for the name of a character set. That would help
identify email written in, say, Crylic. But what if there's no
character set specified?
You could refuse to accept email from IP addresses that originate in
geographic regions other than North America, but then you'd refuse to
accept email from US companies that used mail services in other areas
of the world.
Using Exchange 2003 SP2 running on Windows 2003 Server Standard.
The IMF may help. Using VamSoft's ORF (http://www.vamsoft.com) may
help you. But what you really want is a good spam filter.
