Importing IP Addresses into ACLs for SMTP Virtual Servers

I have to add a list of 300 IP addresses to the "SMTP
Connection" and "Relay Restrictions" access control lists
on an SMTP Virtual Server.

Does anyone know of a way to automate this?

Any help would be appreciated....

I have been in a similar situation....and found no way to do it (not to
say its not out there). I really wish this was something that was built
into Exchange...especially as an enforcible policy (having to type lots
of IPs on more then one Exchange box is tiresome). I feel for your
fingers...believe me.
