Mike, What's wrong with it?
With ~sixty-five hundred mailboxes we reject over four thousand pieces of garbage a day. We still get grief because Trend doesn't catch *everything*. <useless rant because we all know better> Never mind that the user has [a] subscribed to all the 'jokes of the day', [b] subscribed to 'recipes direct to your mailbox', [c] tried to unsubscribe/remove to every piece of spam that *did* get through, [d] forwarded every chain letter and 'tell to everyone you know' piece of cr@p since the beginning of time, and [e]ETC. Never mind the user has been told repeatedly what to do and what *not* to do. No matter how much you try to dumb it down and explain in terms a ten year old can understand [1], the concepts of a changed From: account or a changed filter string remains totally foreign to most. The biggest complainers don't know about, or know how to use, the Delete key... </useless rant...> Whatever you do, *don't* get pulled into creating server side filters for everyone.... Paul [1] I shouldn't pick on ten year olds; they know better than to do the stupid stuff in [a-f] ! -----Original Message----- From: William Lefkovics [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, April 23, 2002 8:20 PM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: RE: What is everyone using for spam prevention for Exchange 2000? User education. That's it. -----Original Message----- From: Mike Lagase [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, April 23, 2002 5:16 PM To: Exchange Discussions Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: What is everyone using for spam prevention for Exchange 2000? I have Scanmail but the content scanning service, to put it in plain english sucks. Any suggestions would be great.
