Lots of small companies can not financially justify purchase of second box to make it Edge Role server. To have at lease some kind of anti-spam and content filtering protections in the company I need to know (and probably another few hundreds newbie Exchange admins) how to correctly install and setup AntispamAgents on only one Exchange server in the company. I would be so great if one of you Exchange gurus will write step by step tutorials on how to do this.
I just install AntispamAgents on my Exchange server and I�m trying to setup content filtering without much luck.
Thanks in advance.

I've been running content filtering in production since this weekend. Having no major issues with it but I currently suspect it is blocking some legit mail. It is so far working well blocking spam though, but it doesn't offer alot of control or oversight for false positives. There is the ability to add filtered content to a quarantine mailbox, but it requires some fine tuning as the defaults seem to be problematic. All of this is likely due to the fact the anti spam agents are intended to be on an Edge server.

Before migrating to Exchange 2007 one of our client (High School) were using MDeamon email server. Email content filtering for them was one of the main priorities. If a student sent an email to another student with unappropriated contents, MDeamon content filter will trigger action to send a copy of this email to IT staff member who is responsible for this type of incident at school. I need to setup similar scenario in Exchange 2007. In "Microsoft Exchange 2007 World� I have no idea how to implement this. Following Microsoft instructions on setting up content filtering, I realise that I have to setup quarantine email box on Exchange. Antispam agent detects "bad words� in email, classify email as a spam, blocks and put it onto quarantine mailbox. What I want Exchange server to do is send an email to the student, even with the unappropriated contents. A copy of this email should be send to the reviewing IT staff as well.
