Hi,
I'm having some trouble with spam;
Exchange 2003/Mail Security for Exchange 6.5.8.285.
Recently a user went on holiday and set his out of office, which in turn has obviously aletered some chinese spammers. He is now getting >1000 spam mails/day. I could just change his email address, but that's the easy way out.
I have the Premium AntiSpam settings enabled within the software; All boxes are checked.
My first question is; Does the Spam Scoring box link to how Suspected Spam/SCL is categorised? On the main page, I have 0 mails that are suspected spam and SCL even though I've tried setting the option to >0 under the Premium AntiSpam actions section.
My second question is; As I've access to the Administrator mailbox, there's lots of what appear to be bounce backs. (see below for example)

There was a SMTP communication problem with the recipient's email server. Please contact your system administratorDoes this mean that the spammers are attempting to use this mailserver as an open relay?
Any advice would very much be appreciated.
Thanks.
