I'm on exchange 2k. it doesn't work that way with e2k. Chris Wall <Chris.Wall@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: http://www.MSExchange.org/ Raj, Deniz is correct. Remove the E-mail address for the Distribution list and internal users will still be able to send to the Distribution list. This will prevent outside users from sending to the DL and Spamming everyone. Your users will just have to type in the name of the DL (available in the GAL - Address Book) and send the message. I have done this in our organization (over 1500 DL's) and it has worked great. It even took a large load off of our Exchange infrastructure simply because the amount of e-mail coming in has reduced tremendously. Or you could restrict who can send to the DL, but this would still put a load on the server.......

For example, salesgroup@xxxxxxxxxx order=down&sort=date&pos=0> . There are X amount of users in this group and they all received junk mail. I have filtered this address out, however to prevent this in the future is there any way to stop this group from receiving email from outside? _____ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo! Mail Plus - Powerful.
