WSUS E-Mail & Exchange 2007 Enterprise Anti-Spam/Block List Updates "Andrew" <1800PRIVATE[ at ]NOWHERE.COM> 7/9/2007 12:19:47 PM I've configured my WSUS server to e-mail me when new updates are pulled down. It's always telling me that it's pulled down 10-12 Exchange 2007 Enterprise Anti-Spam/Block List updates. I understand why it's always pulling down new updates. But to be perfectly honest with you, I don't care all that much about these updates. Is there anyway to tell the e-mail service to not inform me about the Exchange 2007 Enterprise Updates? Better yet... I'm only using Exchange 2007 Standard, is there any way to tell WSUS to not pull down the Enterprise version of the updates? Also, why is it only the enterprise edition that's being updated? Why not update standard? Thanks in advance, Andrew

If you're only using Exchange 2007 Standard, and you don't care about the Exchange 2007 Enterprise Updates, why are you synchronizing the product category?

Re: WSUS E-Mail & Exchange 2007 Enterprise Anti-Spam/Block List Updates "Andrew" <1800PRIVATE[ at ]NOWHERE.COM> 7/10/2007 1:07:39 PM The classification "Exchange Server 2007 Anti-spam" is for both Standard & Enterprise. There are on occasion updates labeled for Standard. If it truly is meant to be only Enterprise edition, they should label the category that way. I just wish they would split it into two categories, so people w/o enterprise don't have to see all that update spam.
