Can someone tell me how to block external emails, such as big@boss.com, at the server?

Hey,
First make sure you have Exch 5.5 running with service pack 2. Then do the following:
- Go to the IMS( Internet mail Service ) properties
- Click the Connections tab
- Click Message filtering
- Click Add
then you get to add either whole domain or specific email address.
Then choose other options as they fit your needs( ie. Deleting filtered messages or archive them )
save your changes and restart the IMS and you are on your way.

BTW MSKB article 276321 describes how to do this in Exchange 2000.
