The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

Preventing incoming mail from senders not in global address list

Asked by carls64 in Symantec Anti-Virus Software, Exchange Email Server, Anti-Spam Email Software

Tags: , ,

We User Microsoft Exchange Server 2003 and Symantec Antivirus for Exchange (Not End point Security) as well as the premium Ant-Spam protection. All in all it does a great job of filtering email. However spammers are getting smarter by the day, and we regularly get email from users in our organization that simply do not exist, like bob@orgainization.org, no bob here!

We also seem to get a number of hijacked emails from existing people on our domain, so when the mail gets bounced it looks like its coming from within our organization. We validate each of these to be sure we are not sending these out ourselves, but I am not sure there is any way to stop spoofed emails.

Lastly we pipe all incoming email from the net through a postfix/Linux server before it reaches our exchange server, for outgoing email we do the same, we have exchange send it to the postfix server then out the net. (I don't trust exchange to be exposed to the net, that is just me).

Thank you in advance!
