I currently use Exchange Server 5.5 SP3 w/Hot Fix. I am looking for a way to scan all mailboxes for keywords, either with exchange or with a thrid party tool. Any recommendations, greatly appreciate it...!!

You can script your own solution in VBScript, VBA, or VB using the object model exposed by CDO (Collaboration Data Objects) for Exchange 5.5. See http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/cdo/html/_olemsg_searching_for_a_message.asp?frame=true (make sure there are no spaces in the URL) for sample code. There are other samples in the same library area that show how to access the Folders collection and other techniques you will need.

Good luck. I hope this helps.

forget all that scripting stuff.
if you want to scan the IS for certain specific emails and take those emails out of the IS or whatever
download Exmerge 3.71 (exchange 5.5) MS tool

You can use this tool against viruses etc.. you can take out mail with a specified date, subject, attachment etc....
