Using Centralized Email Filtering

There are two centralized Email Filtering services:

• Email Antivirus

  When the Email Antivirus service is enabled, your email is automatically scanned for the detection and elimination of all known viruses and vandals. If a virus is detected, it is removed and replaced with a warning message.

• Email Antispam

  When the Email Antispam service is enabled, your email is automatically scanned for the detection of spam. If spam is detected, the email's Subject line is modified to indicate that it is suspected spam. If your email client allows defining rules based on the Subject field, you can create rules to divert such messages to a special folder.

  Note: Email Filtering services are only available if you are connected to a Service Center and subscribed to the services. For information on using subscription services, see Using Subscription Services.

  Note: For information on the differences between the centralized Email Filtering services and VStream Antivirus or VStream Antispam, see Overview.
