Thanks for the reply.

You Lanwench have NDR's disabled? I'm seriously considering it.

Yes, I usually disable them.


Kinda like a spam filter. It works 95% of the time for good. 5 % of
the time it would be usefull!

Yep.

Outlook 2003 / Exchange 2003 sp2

One user (my boss!) is getting inundated with System Administrator
NDR's. I know that these are coming back as a result of a spoofed
email address. 300 + a day! We have anti spam and anti virus in
our enterprise so I know they are propigating from outside.

Anyway, Outlook 2003 will not allow a rule to be created to move all
of these Sys Admin messages out of her Inbox, and I don't want to
disable the NDRs all together.

How can I keep the benefits of NDR's and yet allow my user to have a
"clean" mailbox.

I'm out of ideas

thanks in advance,
Ray

Your disabling NDRs won't do it, anyway - these weren't issued by
your server. They were issued by the recipients' servers, and sent
to your boss because he's the purported sender of the original
messages. NDRs have become less than useful, but it's hard to
convince a lot of admins to disable them outright.

Sadly, I'm not sure what you can do to combat this - other than
using your antivirus/antispam software to prevent delivery of the
NDRs for the spoofed email. You could set up a rule based on
"undeliverable" in the subject line, tho.....
