Hello,
Using exchange 2007, hub transport, I want to block email from a domain if it has over a certian number of users. I've tried to accomplish this with transport rules, but can't figure it out. I suspect that there is a quicker, easier way to do it. Message Filtering?
Thank you for any help, mary g
