Well, you can set up the spamfilter to quarantine the filtered messages
for later review and if there should be a legitimate message it can be
retrieved.
I don't think there are any spamfilters which blocks 100% spam and 0%
legitimate messages.

I highly recommend going to one of the sites like mailabuse.org and

It's still not something I would have done. If you are going to test
someone else's domain that you don't own, then you really ought to
manually test it. If you are using a 3rd party tool, then you don't
have any control over whether they send domain names that fail the relay
tests to RBL's.

I believe that starting with Exchange 2003 you can buy CALs on a per-mailbox
or per-device basis; but as always, ask your MS rep to be sure. In the case
of the company I work for it's actually cheaper to license on a per-user
since lots of users access their mailboxes from multiple machines.
