However, all the mail comes into the Uni to two central Sun unix mailhubs. They run the Exim MTA and SpamAssassin. I was told that all the Exchange mail has to enter the Uni this way so that it could be spam checked by the mailhubs. We had so many complaints of spam from staff that my 'powers that be' stated that the mailhubs must run spam checking software (they didn't previously; they were just used as an mta). I was told that the Exchange servers had no spam checking software and they couldn't run any (!). I know zip about Exchange, and whilst this sounded very odd, I was pleased that the unix boxes got a bit more recognition in what they can do (- this is a very MS orientated site). No help for your problem mind, but just thought you might want to know :-)
