you can create a rule on each client (or maybe on the server, i'm not sure about that) to block a certain internet address. In Microsoft Outlook, if you go to Tools, Rules Wizard and just choose the different criteria, you can do it that way.

In exchange 2000 system manager, get the properties of the smtp virtual server, access tab, connections button, add the mail servers for abc.hotmail.com under the exception list.

To find out the mail server for abc.hotmail.com you can use nslookup.exe set q=mx, then type abc.hotmail.com and it will tell you the mail server.

or open up a message from them in outlook, view, options, and read the message header.
