Introduction

This chapter explains how to set up content checking in Mail essentials. The content checking feature allows you to set-up a policy regarding what types of email you will allow to leave and enter your company/mail server.

To set up such a policy, Mail essentials uses the concept of 'Rules'. A rule is a condition that you set, for example, blocking all executable attachments into your company.

Other examples of rules are:

  • blocking all mails which contain certain words
  • blocking all mails with attachments that can contain programs or scripts. (*.vbs) (Love Letter!)
  • blocking mails which are larger than a certain size.
  • blocking certain users sending attachments all together.
