IMHO this is not MailScanners job. Give your MTA knowledge of the valid Exchange e-mail addresses. Either by using LDAP queries to Active Directory or by extracting all valid e-mails and automatically building a whitelist for your MTA. I prefer the second option due to the security implications of method one.
