Out of interest, we currently use spamassassin to tag incoming messages with a spam score. Users can then set up exim filters on
their unix based imap mailbox to decide what level to accept/reject messages as spam. They can also set up their own blacklists
and whitelists. This is all done via a web-based front end to make it easy. If we were to switch to an exchange based server is
there an equivalent to the exim filter that would allow individual users to do the same thing? i.e. the filtering done at the
message store rather than the client.
