To date, there aren't any known vulnerabilities to the Exchange-SMTP gateway.  That does not however, mitigate the other obvious problems with mail based attacked including using Exchange as a spam relay, active content attacks (ala ILOVEYOU), HTTP formatted mail attacks, virus infected attachments, flooding the server, DoS attacks, etc.  Keep the big picture.
