Exchange 2003 SP2, IMF and Sender ID issue

Hi,

I am using Windows SBS with SP1 and Exchange 2003 SP2.

I configured IMF to reject messages with SCL >= 8 and move messages
with an SCL >= 4 to Junk Mail folder. I configured Outlook to show SCL
rating in Inbox.

I receive several messages which show SCL rating by Exchange IMF >= 4,
but they are not being moved to Junk Email folder by Exchange Server. I
have configured Virtual SMTP server to allow IMF filtering as well.

Can anyone suggest what may be wrong?

Also, I have configured Message Delivery Properties, to Reject messages
which fail Sender ID filtering. I have configured Virtual SMTP to allow
sender ID filtering as well. Outlook is configured to show Sender ID
value from Exchange Server for each message.

Sender ID seems to be working well. However I am facing a problem with
message from my own domain name adityainternational.com, I have created
a SPF record and validated it from various tools available from
http://spf.pobox.com, therefore the record is correct.

However, any message sent from @adityainternational.com gets a TEMP_ERR
in sender ID. Whereas on other domains Exchange is able to contact DNS
and validate Sender ID. My network adapters are configured to use local
DNS server on Exchange Server. I am able to nslookup
adityainternational.com on the exchange server using command prompt, so
DNS is also configured correctly.

Can anyone suggest why I only get TEMP_ERR for messages sent from
@adityainternational.com, while other messages work ok?
