Scanner
Deployed as a Control Center, a Symantec Mail Security host allows
you to configure and manage email filtering, SMTP routing, system
settings, and all other functions from a Web-based interface.
Multiple Scanners can be configured and monitored from your
enterprise-wide deployment of Symantec Mail Security, but only
one Control Center can be deployed to administer all the Scanner
hosts.
The Control Center provides information on the status of all
Symantec Mail Security hosts in your system, including system
logs and extensive customizable reports. Use the Control Center
to configure both system-wide and host-specific details.
The Control Center provides the Setup Wizard, for initial
configuration of all Symantec Mail Security instances at your site,
and also the Add Scanner Wizard, for adding new Scanners.
The Control Centrer also hosts the Spam and Suspect Virus
Quarantines to isolate and store spam and virus messages,
respectively. End users can view their quarantined spam messages
and set their preferences for language filtering and blocked and
allowed senders. Alternatively, you can configure Spam Quarantine
for administrator-only access.
Control Center
A single Symantec Mail Security host performs both functions. Scanner and Control
Center
Note: Symantec Mail Security provides neither mailbox access for end users nor
message storage. It is not intended for use as the only MTA in your email
infrastructure.
