Generally (and so far as I know) you have to put Spam-Filtering in front of Exchange. For two clients, I do this via Exchange outsourcing and the outsource company provides spam filtering and a quarantine area for users to review emails that should have been whitelisted. For another client, I installed (on a separate server) Symantec Mail for SMTP V5 with the Premium Anti Spam addition. This application does a very good job of checking and turfing spam and emails laden with viruses. Mail for SMTP offers a quarantine area as well.

I don't think Exchange will do what you want without additional software. ... T
BTW, try writing in lower case with proper capitaliztion.

Sorry about the all caps.  I do have Symantec Information Foundation Mail Security for Microsoft Exchange version 6.0.6.235.    My virus definitions are up to date as of 11/7/08.  I have my computers scan every Friday, it just seems that I have 2 desktops that seem to get a lot of SPAM email and others do not.  Should I scan that desktop by itself?  I should have explained better in my question.
