I have used message filtering to filter out the domains from where the spam is originating. I have read about the TURF directory and have implemented the registry settings to C:\Exchsrvr\Imcdata\Turfdir But do I need to create this folder first or does Exchange automatically create the folder the first time a mail message matching the filtered list comes in.

I usually go to http://www.arin.net/whois/ first, although you might skip this step since you already probably know they are in Asia. You could skip straight to http://www.apnic.net/ and go into their Whois feature to look up the owner of the IP address 203.199.81.81. That will tell you that the message is definitely coming from vsnl.net. Beyond that, you will have to contact vsnl's admins and ask them which user has that IP address. -- be - MOS Academy: A modern school where football is taught. > -----Original Message----- > From: RBHATIA [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: Tuesday, July 09, 2002 1:28 PM > To: Exchange Discussions > Subject: RE: Message filtering > > > > I do have anti-virus software and it is trapping and quarantining the > messages.
