Hello list,

We use the IMSext.dll to add the disclaimer you see at the bottom of this
mail, but I am finding it difficult to find any clear information about how
to use it and not expose the mail server to relaying.

I have noticed that there are some odd failed delivery messages appearing
overnight in the admin mailbox for various domains.  These messages usually
contain something like this in the main body:
050048056046050053052046053055046050058078079084058049052054051054058049058 

There are a couple of good articles by Joseph Neubauer up on the
exchangeadmin.com website: "Is Your Exchange Server Relay-Secure?", "Using
the IMS Extension DLL" and "The Advantage Of Installing Imsext.dll Through
The Registry",  but nothing that tells me exactly how I can get the IMS to
give the '550 Relaying Prohibited' for all mail which doesn't match our
domain whilst still using the IMSext.dll which I don't think it currently
does - just 250 OK to any address.
I have searched Technet, Exchtool.chm from the BORK and this lists archives
but haven't been able to find anything.

It's Exch 5.5, Sp4, NT4SP6a.

I wondered if anyone on the list has managed to do this successfully?

Thanks as always for any ideas.

Dan.
