email sent to us every second basically shutting down our exchange server 2003
we have windows sbs 2003 with exchange server 2003 set up in our shop. we are getting hammered by some one in japan with a email every second is what the log shows. how do i stop this from happening. we are virtually unable to send or receive our normal email. some email got to us today from a week ago.
Can't you just Firewall off the remote IP of the problem mailserver?
