Control Center Testing and Configuration
Brightmail Scanner is running, you should be able to see spam messages when you log
into the Brightmail Control Center as an administrator. There can be a slight delay until
the first spam message arrives, depending on the amount of spam received at your
organization.
If new spam messages arrive for a user while that user is viewing quarantined messages,
the new spam messages will be displayed after a page change. For example, if you’re
viewing an individual message and then return to the message list, any new messages that
have just arrived will be added at the end of the message list and displayed when the last
message list page is displayed.
The Brightmail Scanner must be configured to forward spam messages to Quarantine. If
the default configuration is not changed, Symantec Brightmail AntiSpam inserts
[Spam]
in the subject line of spam messages and delivers them to users’ normal inbox rather than
Quarantine. The following Symantec Brightmail AntiSpam message categories can be
configured to forward messages to Quarantine:
•
Spam
•
Suspected spam
•
Messages from blocked senders
•
Messages containing company-specific content (as defined by you)
•
Messages that are unscannable for viruses
You can choose to have all, some or none of these message types forwarded to Quarantine.
NOTE:
Brightmail Quarantine only supports the ISO-Latin-1 character set. If messages
are processed into the Quarantine database in other character sets, any non-
compliant characters may not be readable.
To set up delivery of messages to Quarantine:
1
In the Brightmail Control Center, click the
Settings
tab, and then click
Group
Policies

2
Under
Groups
, click the appropriate group, such as

message is suspected spam
to
Quarantine the Message
.
4
Click
Save
.
5
Repeat this process for each group policy that you want to set to deliver messages to
Quarantine.
