Can anyone help me with this issue. I am using windows 2k
with Exchange 2k. My server is locked down and is not
allowed to forward any incoming e-mail to another domain
except mine with the exception of authenticated users.
I've tested to make sure my server is not an "open relay
server" all test comfirm it is not. My inbound queue's are
being flooded with spam that is not getting routed but is
getting bounced and also being put into the Exchange
server's badmail folder, maybe 3000-10000 per day. This is
also causing my store service to use up 20-30% of my
server cpu resorces. How can I prevent these e-mails from
being proccessed and bounced from my server?

Thanks
