Description
Virus Virus Displays the type of virus detected in the email
Spam Spam Score Displays a score that indicates how likely that the email is spam.
•
A spam score of 90% - 98.9% is considered “medium”
likelihood if default settings are used.
• A spam score of 99% or higher is considered “high” likelihood
if default settings are used.
Email Protection anti-spam filtering uses a large number of
filtering processes, as well as sophisticated statistical classification
techniques, as part of its Stacked Classification Framework® to
determine the score. If you specified an additional Realtime
Blackhole List (RBL) in the Anti-Spam window of the assigned
policy, the RBL can influence the spam score as well.
Note: Occasionally, some emails might be marked as spam when in
fact they are legitimate emails. For these “false positive” email
messages, you can help Email Protection “tune” the spam
thresholds and rules by sending a forwarded copy of the email with
all content and attachments to falsepositive@mxlogic.com.
Attachment Attachment Displays the name of an attachment that was included in the email
message and violates attachment rules (size, file typ, zip file
attachments) as defined on the Attachment windows of the
assigned policy. If a message contains more than one delinquent
attachment, the first attachment found in the message is listed. You
can check to see all attachments by opening the message.
Content Keyword Displays Content to indicate that the email that violated a content
policy, as defined in the Content Groups window for the assigned
policy. You can see what keywords were violated by opening the
message and checking the
Status line.
All Threats Type Displays the type of threat filtering that the email violated.
