Whom or that: Which relative pronoun is correct?

Hi. Please tell me which is correct. I think they are relative pronouns. Thank you in advance.

She is the most beautiful girl that/whom he has ever seen.

She is the most beautiful girl that he has ever seen. This is actually an interesting question, Anon. 'Whom' is possibly grammatically correct, but it is certainly not natural.
