IIS - How do I disable BadMail usage for SMTP service in IIS6.0?

Asked By dud

I have a relay server in front of Exchange 2003 running antispam and
antivirus.  It is a windows 2003 server box with IIS SMTP installed.  I
noticed that the BadMail directory builds up really fast and would like to
disable this feature.  I've found docs on how to do this in Exchange 2003 but
not for IIS SMTP service.  Does it use the same registry keys as an Exchange
SMTP virtual server?  If not, is there instruction somewhere on how to
perform this?

thanks

Why is WinXP Pro's IIS SMTP crippled? IIS Thought I could use WinXP Pro's SMTP for something useful, but quickly discovered that it is intentionally cripped to send only. Its a deliberate to get you to hand more money over to Bill. Found another Windows SMTP solution (MailEnable - its free even), but why did M$ even bother to have an SMTP available on WinXP Pro that is only capable of sending? I can't see any use for only being able to send email. That is incredibly lame and gay. IIS Discussions IIS (1) SMTP (1) WinXP (1) XP (1) Windows Server (1) MDA (1) POP (1) Server
