Hi all,

I am having a hell of a time with Exchange 2007 SP1 blocking all email from a particular domain, lets call it blockeddomain.com. I have added blockeddomain.com to the BypassedSenderDomains as seen below:

$LIST = (Get-ContentFilterConfig).BypassedSenderDomains

$list

Address               IncludeSubDomains Domain              SmtpDomain

-------               ----------------- ------              ----------

blockeddomain.com      False blockeddomain.com      blockeddomain.com     

But still the problem persists. I am honestly stumped and don’t know where to go from here – has anybody else experienced a similar problem?

Are the messages getting rejected or do they just get put in the outlook junk mail folder? Are you using a IP Block list that might also be rejecting it before it gets to the content filter? If so, you might want toadd the blockeddomain.com mail servers to the IP Allow List.
