Hosted Exchange SPAM Filtering for Exchange 2007

Solution Overview

To prevent email spam, both end users and administrators of e-mail systems use various
anti-spam techniques. Some of these techniques have been embedded in products, services and software to ease the burden on users and administrators. No one technique is a complete solution to the spam problem, and each has trade-offs between incorrectly rejecting legitimate email vs. not rejecting all spam, and the associated costs in time and effort.

Integrated anti-spam options currently include:

Basic Server-side SPAM Filtering

Microsoft Intelligent Message Filter
This service is a customized version of Microsoft Intelligent Message Filter (IMF). It is roughly 95% effective in preventing spam. Since it is server-side, it works well for BlackBerry and Outlook Web Access (OWA).
