We have a client who is under a fairly targeted attack and it doesn’t seem to 
be abating. They’ve asked us to see if we can help to limit their exposure.

One of the things that has proven to be most dangerous is the attacker 
controlling domains that are similar to their actual mail domain (and using 
this to spoof email).

We are in the process of occupying as many of the obvious additional domains as 
possible but due to the nature of the URL it’s quite susceptible to deliberate 
typos and letter transposition, at which point, with the 1000 odd TLD’s 
available, buying all the domains becomes a fairly significant outlay.

What I’m wondering is; is it possible to apply a filter in Exchange 2010 to 
inbound mail to reject email that matches a specific string/set of 
strings/regular expression? If so how?

Thanks,
Patrick
