Spam Configure how VStream Antispam should handle spam that is detected
using the IP Reputation engine.
Action Specify the action VStream Antispam should take upon detecting spam,
by selecting one of the following:
• Reject. Block the email.
• None. Take no action.
Note: If the IP Reputation engine is in Monitor Only mode, this setting is
ignored. For information on changing the engine's mode, see
Enabling/Disabling VStream Antispam on page 531.
Track Specify whether VStream Antispam should log spam, by selecting one of
the following:
• Log. VStream Antispam should log spam.
•
None. VStream Antispam should not log spam.
Confidence Type the minimum spam confidence level (SCL) needed to fail this check.
If an email's SCL matches or exceeds this threshold, the email is
considered spam.
Setting a higher SCL reduces the number of legitimate emails erroneously
identified as spam. Setting a lower SCL increases the amount of spam
that is identified as legitimate email.
The default value is 90.
Suspected Spam Configure how VStream Antispam should handle suspected spam that is
detected using the IP Reputation engine.
