About your filtering policy
Your filtering policy is determined by how you configure Symantec Mail
Security for SMTP to filter messages (which criteria to use to block messages
and attachments and how those blocked messages and attachments should be
handled).
Table 6-1
shows the criteria that you can use to filter messages and attachments
and how those filtered messages and attachments can be handled.

Criteria
Handling options
Message size
Email messages that exceed the size that is specified in
megabytes are not accepted at the SMTP server. Not blocking
messages based on size is the default.
Subject line
Email messages with specified subject lines may be dropped,
logged, or forwarded. Not identifying subject lines is the
default.
File name
Email messages with specified file names may be delivered with
their attachments deleted. Not deleting attachments based on
file names is the default, although a suggested extension list is
provided.
Container limit
Email messages that exceed any of the specified container
limits may be dropped. Blocking messages that exceed
container limits is the default.
Encrypted container
Email messages that are encrypted or password-protected have
their containers deleted and the messages delivered; the
messages and containers dropped; the incidents logged and the
messages with containers delivered; or the messages and
containers forwarded to a specified address. Deleting the
containers and delivering the messages is the default.
Anti-relay settings
Email messages with non-local destinations are handled
according to how you configure Symantec Mail Security for
SMTP. Do not allow, except for listed hosts is the default.
Content rules
Email messages in which content violation filtering rules are
detected are handled according to how the product is
configured.
