Useful Messaging Hygiene Links
[John]
I just thought I’d do a quick post with some useful links with regards to keeping your Exchange Servers safe from spammers and the like.
The first of these is with regards to tarpitting, so called because it makes the connection “sticky”. You can use this technique to slow down certain communications between you and a potential spammer.
I got asked the question the other day on how you could see the Spam Confidence Level associated with a specific message – Well the Exchange Team have a great article on their blog on how you can create an Outlook form to do just this.
And my final link is to a nice little utility on the gotdotnet site – It’s an IMF Archive Manager which gives you a tree view of the mail archived by the IMF tool and allows you to forward the mail, resubmit it or just delete it
