RE: Configure exchange to only receive incoming mail from one domain




HI James,

Welcome to SBS newsgroup.

Issue description:
===============

I understand that you want to configure Exchange 2003 to stop the spam to
only accept emails from special domain.

Analyzing and suggestions:
================

Generally speaking, on SBS 2003 we have many anti-spam functions, which
will help you resolve the issue, if you just want to receive the incoming
emails from special domain, you can refer to the steps below:

1. Please check SMTP virtual server, right click it to choose properties.
2. In the access tab, then choose connection control, add the domain you
want to allow to access the SMTP virtual server
3. Please also check the properties of Message Deliver, you can also set
the rules there. ( You can check the message deliver properties by Opening
Exchange System Management->Global setting->Message deliver.)

We also have a good anti-spam free software called IMF, please refer the
information below:

Microsoft Exchange Intelligent Message Filter Deployment Guide

..mspx

If you installed ISA on your SBS 2003, I suggest you check if you have set
some restrictions on ISA SMTP filtering rules:

Hope the above information helpful, if you have any further concerns,
please let me know, I am here waiting for your updates.


Best regards,

| We use spam Filtering Company to scan all of our incoming mail records
100-400
| When we set up the owa and remote access originally we linked it
| mail.mydomian.com account
| W were not using spam filtering company at the time.
| We have since changed providers and they do not do any basic filtering on
| mail.mydomian.com so the spammers are getting mail thru on
mail.mydomian.com
| Is it possible to configure exchange to only accept mail from filter
company
| servers only?
| And not affect the remote access, OWA in the Isa 2000, SBS2003
