Hi<br />
<br />
Running Exchange 2007 SP2. Management have circulated some confidential information and they want to ensure it's not forwarded, so they want to block any emails containing the phrase &quot;Financial Results 2010&quot; (example).<br />
<br />
I know I can use a Transport rule to carry this out.<br />
<br />
But, does anyone know how this actually works? Our topology is global but always:<br />
<br />
CMS &gt;&nbsp;Local Hub Transport &gt;&nbsp;HQ Hub 1 &gt;&nbsp;HQ Hub 2 &gt;&nbsp;SMTP Gateway<br />
<br />
I had some questions<br />
<br />
i. On which Hub does the message get blocked at? The first one the message encounters or at the CMS itself?<br />
<br />
ii. If I was to run Message Tracking if a user sent a message with that phrase, what would I expect to see as the Event if the Hub blocked it?<br />
<br />
iii. What actually happens to the message?<br />
<br />
iv. If a user happened to send a message with that phrase in it innocently and it was blocked, how could we find this out by checking Message Tracking?<br />
