Re: Exchange 2007 Anti-Spam

Sorry I can't be more help, but I've never actually used it myself, I only know what it's meant to do in theory

Yes, I was looking at that. But for some reason, when I enter in the compand "UPDATE-SAFELIST" it doesnt work in the powershell. I am going absolutly crazy with the command line stuff not working. I add users to the whitelist in the command shell, and add domains and they still get flagged as spam. The technet docs are very thin and basic. I love Exchange 2007 and at first I was recommending everyone to jump on it, but the lack of documentation beyond just the vanilla commands are extremely lacking, especially on the anti-spam and powershell stuff. I know this is just because SP1 just came out.

For instance, even if update-safelist did work, how in the HECK can i verify it? I bought the only book on SP1 available by Jim McBee. Do you know how HE suggests to verify it? Go and make yourself a GMAIL account, then send your domain an email with it. GRRR! I mean think about it? Is that how you check if you made a new user account on the domain? You send an email to the user? Heck no! You would never do that in a million years. I have also been trying to find documenation on how to print out my whitelist I put into the powershell. I even posted it on Experts Exchange for the highest amount of points, no one could answer it. I mean, if you do all this programming in the powershell, there should be a way to print out the list and verify what is in there. It is really like flying blind from my experience so far.

I have whitelisted users several times, still to get mail flagged as spam by them. I will probably pay to have a ticket open for MS today because of it.

Thanks for your help! I will continue to try to get my update-safelist to work!

when I do:

update-safelist

I get:

cmdlet update-safelist at command pipeline position 1
Supply values for the following parameters:

I migrated from Exchange 2003 with GFI antispam to Exchange 2007 just using the built in spam.

In GFI there is a setting that remembers everyone the clients sends to, and puts them on a whitelist. Is this feature available in 2007?

How can I show and verify my complete whitelist? I have added using the command shell, but it is not work for domains, nor regular users.

Help! and Thanks!
