Whoa, flag on play.
It is not recommended nor a good idea to block on a RBL hit.

Seb, KB article #823866
(http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;823866) has info on
how to configure Exchange 2003 to use RBLs. You just have to choose the RBL
list (or lists) that you want to use.

Looks interesting. Spam Assassin was very hard to install and I'll think I
will removed it. How do you do the black hole list?

Why would you do both IMF and SA? Those seem like overkill, since they both
do essentially the same thing. There are those that would probably argue SA
is technically better, but that's a personal decision. We're running IMF,
since it's easier to install and manage, IMHO, than SA.
You may also want to look into doing some blocking against a real-time black
hole list. Exchange can do that, and SA as well, if you enable it. This
would block some of your incoming spam before they get into the content
analysis phase.
Finally, I'll just point out that IMF is great, but if you want more
end-user control over things like white lists, and the ability for users to
create and view personal quarantines, you can take a look at a product from
my company, Sirana SpamCenter, which is an add-on to IMF.

Hi All
I'm running an Exchange 2003 for my small business (on a albeit low budget)
and it is working fine. I have setup IMF and Spam Assassin with McAfee Group
Shield 6. Does this seem adequate spam and virus protection? Any suggestions
on improvements?
