If you’re planning to use Forefront for Exchange (FfE) to filter emails for profanity then you can save a bit of time and effort and use the example keyword list that ships with FfE instead of creating your own.
The example keyword lists must be installed manually after installing FfE on the Hub Transport server and then imported into a keyword list you create… so…
-
On the server with FfE installed browse to “C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Forefront Security\Exchange Server” and double-click on “KeywordInstaller.MSI”, Next à Check “I agree and…” and click Next, from the options available select the languages you want à Next à Install à Finish.
-
Within the Forefront Server Security Administrator console (FSSAc) select FILTERING à Filter Lists à List Types: Keywords. As shown below…
-
Select Add and give your list a name. As shown below…
-
With the list you created selected click Edit to launch the list editor.
-
Within the list editor click Import, browse to “C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Forefront Security\Exchange Server\Data\Example Keywords” and select the appropriate file from those you selected to install in step 1 above.
-
Click the <=== button to move the imported text into the ‘Includes in Filter’ selection list and click OK à OK.
At this point you’ve now got a profanity list setup but you now need to make sure its used…
-
Within the FSSAc click FILTERING à Keyword à select Transport Scan Job.
-
On the bottom right of the FSSAc you should see a Filter section with a dropdown list, from the drop down list select Enabled
-
From the Action drop down list select the appropriate action
-
Click Save.
All mails flowing through this Hub server will now be subject to profanity scanning, repeat the above for your other Hub Transport servers!
