That  is  a  bad  design  indeed, since there are no exceptions to the
auto-blocking.

How  do  any  of  those  messages ever pass IMGate in the first place?
Can't  IMGate be set to block per-message using the same criteria? Not
that  you'd need IMail's support at that point, but I'm unclear on why
IMGate doesn't/can't short-circuit the feature anyway.

It's  the  default,  so  I'd  bet just about everybody is using it. We
usually  deploy  with  it  turned  on  and  have never found support a
burden.  I  think  the  payoff, as long as the IMail server as the MX,
outweighs the risk.
