Installation instructions

GFI MailSecurity for Exchange/SMTP Configuring virus checking  53
4. BitDefender Control also allows you to block or ignore emails with
attachments that contain macros. This feature can be configured by
selecting one of the following options:
 Do not check macros – Select this option if you want GFI
MailSecurity to ignore macros and only scan emails for viruses.
 Block all documents containing macros – Select this option if
you want to quarantine all emails that contain a macro (even if the
macro is a genuine one).
NOTE: Quarantining of emails depends on the Actions configured in
the Virus Scanning Engine. If you select Delete item in the Actions
tab of the Antivirus Engine, all emails containing macros will still be
DELETED (i.e. they are NOT Quarantined).
5. The configuration settings required in the Actions and Updates tabs
are identical for all the installed Virus Scanning Engines. For more
information on how to configure these parameters, refer to the „Virus
Scanner Actions‟ section and „Virus Scanner Updates‟ section in this
chapter.
6. After you have configured all the required parameters, click Apply.
All changes and configuration settings will take effect immediately.
NOTE: The section at the bottom of the General tab displays
information on the scanning engine. This includes the Virus Scanning
Engine version and the virus signature count. License details for the
current anti-virus engine are also displayed.

Engine version, virus signature count and the date of the current virus
signature files. License details for the current anti-virus engine are
