Is there a way, from the server side, to move all incoming messages
with the text "[Spam]", into the "Junk E-Mail" folder in everyone's
inbox. We would liked the messages tagged by our spam filter to be
placed in the junk folder rather than the inbox. We don't want to block
these specific messages at outright at the gateway. I was thinking we
could just create a server side rule within the Outlook 2003 client but
I'm not sure how to roll this out company wide. If there is another way
to accomplish the same thing I am open for suggestions.

Thanks

The first phase of our Enterprise SPAM Filter will tag the
subject. We need the users to look at all these messages
for two reasons. First, so they can become comfortable
that the filter doesn't block any business
communications. The second is to build the WhiteList for
bulk mail that is business related.

Therefore we would like each user to create a rule that
will move these tagged messages to a separate folder for
easier managing.

I think this can be done by (spam)filters on the server
itself. Distributing
client rules this way is hard to manage and the users can
deactivate, remove
or delete the rule themself.

We have Excange 5.5 SP4 and our users are using Outlook
2000. Is there any way to somehow push out or
distribute
a rule to everyone. We would like the rule to move any
inbound message containing certain text in the subject
to
a separate folder.

You can create the rule on a single mailbox that has no other rules, use
Exmerge to export just the Inbox rules (I can't remember where to set this,
I believe it is in Advanced?) to a .pst then use Exmerge again to import
this rule to all other mailboxes. You would (I believe) need a copy of the
pst you create, one for each of your mailboxes, named after the mailbox
alias name, but once you have it generated, you can use an LDAP query to get
all of your alias names, then take that list and write a VB script or
another batch-processing tool to generate all your .pst files. Sounds like a
lot of work but it's not as bad as it sounds. The secret is #1 getting the
rules properly exported out and #2 the mass file create/copy. You might
even be able to use robocopy to do your copying...

What version of Exchange Server? If on Exchange Server 2003 SP2, you can use
IMF and the new Custom Weighting feature to raise the SCL above your Store
threshold.

Why not simply create a webpage or email with instructions on creating
the rule to send out to all your users?
Some of the problems using import procedures is that rules may not
work or they are not enabled etc...
