50 Kaspersky Anti-Spam 3.0
You can define the necessary action using the drop-down list under the header
that describes message status.
The administrator can select the following actions:
• Accept this message – mail server accepts a message and delivers it to
the recipient.
• Send a copy of this message to other recipient(s) – mail server
accepts a message, delivers it to the recipient and sends a copy thereof
to the address specified in the Send message to field.
• Redirect this message to other recipient(s) – mail server accepts a
message and redirects it to the address specified in the Send message
to field. The message will not be delivered to the original recipient. That
opportunity can be used to forward messages to a mailbox used for
storage of spam archive.
• Reject this message – mail server rejects a message and returns to the
sender a notification informing that delivery is impossible. If message
delivery is rejected for all recipients, the server returns a notification of
delivery denial immediately during the corresponding SMTP session
(reject message). If message delivery is allowed for at least one recipient,
the sender will receive a notification informing that the message could not
be delivered to some recipients (bounce message). You can customize
the text of notifications in the Settings → Reject Messages section (see
section 4.5.4 on page 60 for details).
• Delete this message – mail server accepts a message and deletes it
without redirection to the recipient. Message sender then will receive no
notifications informing that the delivery was impossible.
Messages with the Not detected status (i.e. messages not recognized as spam)
or with the Trusted status (i.e. messages received from reliable sources or
addressed to a recipient whose mail is not scanned according to a group policy)
are always routed to the specified recipient.
Although the product is being constantly developed in order to improve
spam recognition and decrease the number of false alarms from the
filter, it is not possible to eliminate altogether the probability of
recognizing normal messages as spam. Therefore, you are advised to
use with caution the actions deleting messages.
In addition to the actions forwarding messages, the administrator can define
certain actions for message modification, which may be helpful both for
visualizing the results of recognition and for subsequent use in combination with
the filters in users' e-mail client software.
