I have a client with an in house exchange 2003 server hosting several different email domains. It seems that a decent number of email that they send out, including hosts like yahoo, flag their email as spam. Is there anything I can do to prevent this or are there any settings in exchange that would cause other hosts to regard their email as spam?

You can try: * setting up an SPF record for your domain, with whomever hosts your public DNS * making sure your public IP has a reverse-lookup record in DNS (your ISP has to do this) * checking to see if you're on any sort of blacklist (try www.dnsstuff.com) * using a smarthost (such as your ISP's SMTP server) to send the outbound mail * advising your users not to send out mass mail to a gazillion people or use the phrase "herbal v14gr4" However, at the end of the day, you can't control what someone else's server thinks of your mail.
