Are talking about Exchange 2000 or 2003? Or just the Windows SMTP service?

If Exchange, RBL integration is actually a new feature in Exchange 2003. If
you want to setup an RBL to stop Blacklisted IPs, you'll need to subscribe
to a 3rd party. Take a look at these articles.

GFI MailSecurity has a free one too, but worth paying for the actual one:

This one is only $99/server, no matter how many users, and is well touted by
many and it works.

Do you mean you would like to operate your own DNSBL on a w2k DNS
service?

There is a command line utility you can use to add/remove entries from
DNS, it is called dnscmd

I am also interested in operating my own RBL on a win2003 server but
am having a hard time finding any information on the general setup of
an RBL on a windows DNS server. Does anyone know where I can find an
article on the setup of an RBL for windows?

You need a 3rd party software to accomplish it. Those links I provided
explains some of it. You can also check out www.vamsoft.com's which offers
RBL functionality. Its relatively inexpensive and from what I've heard,
works great.

Actually meant to say "its easier to use a 3rd party tool" instead of you
"need" a 3rd party tool.
