MS03-046 is listed as "critical" and involves somebody sending bogus data to your smtp port. In our case, the smtp port of our exchange server is not directly connected to the internet - our external SMTP interface is a sendmail firewall that forwards the email to an antivirus gateway and then to the exchange machine. In this scenario, the bogus smtp data is much less likely to ever reach the exchange server. If your exchange SMTP port is directly on the internet then I would be in a hurry to load that patch.
