sent to the following external domains: *" and "Deny messages from the
following internal hosts to be sent to external internet domains: *" (* means
all).
Contact the Administrator of the DNS blacklist site where your domain is

likely spam).

Inbound sender controls: If this continues, deny messages from this domain.
A new virus has been identified and reported on the Web but it has not been
incorporated into your vendor's anti-virus database. You want to stop these

extension types (bat, exe, vbs, and so forth) to a quarantine database or do
not accept these types of attachments.
You suspect that internal users are forwarding e-mail chain letters or Web hoaxes
to other users.
Server mail rules: Create a rule that acts on messages based on the contents

database for further analysis.
Spammers are sending mail to your public group names.
Disable the ability to route SMTP mail to your groups by enabling the server
notes.ini variable
