Re: filter for spam with pop3 service

IMF doesn't work in that scenario. The SBS POP3 connector bypasses the IMF.

Do you mean you are using the SBS POP3 connector to download emails from
an ISP?

What about using IMF as an additional filtering layer? This is how to do
it:

Hello,

I had a look in all the questions but I didn't find any answer to my
problem.

So here it is, I use POP3 service to get my emails, I already have an
external service of spam protection but I still get some spam and a lot
of
ad.
In our system many persons get all the emails through a distribution
list,
that is why the unwanted emails are bothering us.

In my outlook 2003 I have create a rule that check every email that I
receive and if the contact is not in my contact list it goes to the junk
email. I just have to check the junk file and to update my contact list
if
needed.

What I wanted is to do this before the distribution of email, in that way
we
will centralize the junk email and everybody will get only good emails. I
would like to use a contact list and a junk file in the public folder (so
everyone can update and check).

Can someone help me with this.

Thanks.
