If you're talking about limiting access to your SMTP server from Internet
addresses, the S&C rules won't help.
They're only for outbound traffic.

There are two ways you can do this, though:
1. packet filters denying traffic from known spammers (difficult to manage,
though)
2. client address sets applied to your server publishing rules(s) (easier to
manage)

Frankly, I find RBL's to be much easier to handle, since it takes the "find
them" task off your firewall and places it on the mail server where it
belongs...

Subject: [isalist] spam domains

Can I deny spam domains from connecting to port 25 using a site and
content rule populated with the IP addresses?

Using the SMTP filter is apparently not an option with SBS.
