I was referring to the possibility that Exchange 2007 is able to

- permanently delete certain messages (before even giving a client a
chance to download it)
- bind rules to the address book ("permanently delete messages marked
with '[spam]' unless the sender is in address book xy")

This server rule would make my life easier.
