SMTP send limits for some users   

I have a site running Exchange 2000.   They want most users to have limits 
set on the max size email that can be sent out via SMTP, while select users 
are to have no such limitations.

I have set up two SMTP connectors. One, General has a limit of 300K. (This 
is set under "content restriction"  "Allowed sizes".)  The other, Unlimited 
has no limit set.  On the Unlimited connector, I have added select users to 
the "Accept messages from" list, and selected "By default messages from 
everyone are: rejected".

I thought that this would have meant that only the users I selected can send 
SMTP mail via the unlimited connector, but this seems not to be the case. 
All email, regardless of size is being sent, and it shows in the queue going 
via the Unlimited connector.  If I delete the Unlimited connector, email 
size is restricted as intended.

1. What am I doing wrong?
2. How do I limit the unlimited connector to just a few users?
3. Is there another way I should be doing this?

Re: SMTP send limits for some users   

OK, I found Q277872, it all works as expected now.
