Stopping Spam for distribution groups
Hi guys,
I am running exchange 2003 and am recieving alot of NDR spam and normal spam on some of my distribution groups, on the distribution group receiving the largest amount of spam the users recieve a valid email around once a fortnight, but probably get 100 spam messages a day to the distribution groups email address.
I would rather not delete the distribution group as the valid emails that come through to it are fairly important, I was wondering if there is a better method to filter to recieve the valid emails and filter out as much spam as possible (most the spam is NDR spam, so it bypasses most spam filters).
Cheers guys

Oh, and it is pretty cheap. If you buy it in bulk it is like $2 / YR for a mailbox.

Postini is just a solution that I have used with many of the different companies that I work with and in my experience it works like a charm. I use it on my personal domain and it cut down the spam (including NDR floods) that I received from about 100 / day to about 1 / week.

Hi guys,
I am looking at implementing postini, I have heard good things about the program and will see how it holds up.
