According to checkor.com there is no relay. &nbsp;I did enable the sender and recipient filtering. &nbsp;I *think* the flow has slowed. &nbsp;I will wait till morning to see if this has taken care of the issue.<br />

You are welcome - hopefully if it is just a case of NDR spam and all you had was Administrator mail going back to spammers, you should be fine, but please check <a href="http://www.mxtoolbox.com/blacklists.aspx" rel="ugc">www.mxtoolbox.com/blacklists.aspx</a>&nbsp;and make sure you haven't landed on Backscatterer.org.

I am running server 2003 sp2 with exchange 2003. &nbsp;I have a webmaster account that seems to be sending out spam. &nbsp;The password has been changed, but it seems more like a open-relay type situation. &nbsp;The message queues have multiple messages that are trying to go out that are spam. &nbsp;<br />

How do I stop this from happening?

Exchange 2003 open-relay

Exchange is the server side of a collaborative application product that is part of the Microsoft Server infrastructure. Exchange's major features include email, calendaring, contacts and tasks, support for mobile and web-based access to information, and support for data storage.

Exchange

Windows Server 2003 was based on Windows XP and was released in four editions: Web, Standard, Enterprise and Datacenter. It also had derivative versions for clusters, storage and Microsoft’s Small Business Server. Important upgrades included integrating Internet Information Services (IIS), improvements to Active Directory (AD) and Group Policy (GP), and the migration to Automated System Recovery (ASR).
