Archives

In here you can view your email Archives. The Archive view displays all email, whether clean or flagged as spam. In addition it displays details of emails which have been blocked as either containing a virus, having an attachment with a banned extension, or having a suspicious subject line known to have been used in mail storm attacks.

The Archive view will enable you to view and redeliver messages flagged as spam. You can also examine the quarantine logs to see why emails have been blocked.
Note: an end-user cannot redeliver quarantined emails, but a reseller or authorised organisation admin can.

1. To access your Email Security Archives simply scroll down to the 'Email Security' heading on the main homepage.

2. Next, press 'click here to open' next to the 'Archives' sub-header.





The Email Archive view will open, defaulting to All Mail.



The Archive consists of a number of views:

All Mail: Displays all email to the accounts
Received: This is all clean inbound email to the user
Sent: This is all email sent outbound from the account
Spam: This is all inbound email captured as Spam by the filter systems
Quarantine: This is all inbound email blocked for containing viruses, banned attachments or suspicious subject.
Please note: Email which contains attachments classified as High Risk (specified on the Banned Extensions tab in Domain Settings) will be deleted and NOT be held in quarantine. Such emails will still be reported in the Blocked Email Notification report.

Filter: This option allows you to filter each of these views to display specified information such as emails from a particular sender or emails of a subject or specified time period.

Magnifying Glass Icon: Individual emails can be accessed via the Magnifying Glass icon next to emails.
