Hi Susan 

Besides Exchange 200x-aware antivirus, there is also the usual Spam detectors 
such as GFI Mail Essentials. You can set up keywords to flag up inappropriate 
content.

Thank you for your responses.  I think contacting a lawyer is a good idea.  
Exchange 200x-aware antivirus was the only content scanning software that 
was mentioned.  I will check into that software.  Are there any others that 
you can think of....I would like to research and present more than one 
option.

Thanks again for all of your help:)

Susan
