- When dealing with spam you should target the different spam types one by one.
For example the Facebook spam usually always have Facebook in the subject.
So you can just blacklist that keyword. Afterall even legitimate Facebook messages are not usually of business relevance (altough this if for you to decide).
Another category of spam emails that is making it through the Content Filter these days are of the image spam type.
The best way to deal with these is through RBLs. I prefer SpamHaus.
BTW Don't try to deal with spam through IP blacklisting. If you want IP based blocking RBLs are the way to go.

- Please check these junk emails, are they from internal IP or external IP? If they're from specific IPs or specific domains, please block them.
- You cannot block these kinds of spams on subject based as they use random subjects nor even based on domain as they use different domains. But you need to check the Originating ip address of these spams and block them accordingly under connection filtering
Vinod |CCNA|MCSE 2003 +Messaging|MCTS|ITIL V3| - thanks for replying , it even use different IPs , so maybe the IP is spoofedit is just soo many activity in the las 2 weeks only , my anti-spam is up to date , so maybe there is no solution !!! , why the anti-spam doesn't block them !!!I know that the anti-spam add blocked IP address automatically according to their behaviorRegards,
If you turn down the SCL value, will it catch these junk mails? You could try Forefront which protects your Exchange Server messaging environments from viruses, worms, spam, and inappropriate content.
