Hi Phillip,

How So ? this thread starts off by outlining the blacklisting
scenario....... following this thread it progresses to the blockng of port
25 in order to varify the offending user/computer via the log
files........... unless we are way off base here I thought we were trying to
deny acces to users private home email accounts acessed via the WEB..thus
circumventing the corporate exchange mail system/ISA Server on which we have
invested all time an effort to protect our data and insure our desktop
support can be minimized not having to do all this investigation down to the
desktop to see who/what computer may be the culprit in getting us
blacklisted......does this not all fall into the category of "corraling" all
users to only be able to use your business email system....and not permiting
web mail service access ??? Please unconfuse me
