Scanning email on-delivery and on-demand

The email scanner automatically examines email messages and attachments.

The email is scanned using:
  • Microsoft Outlook — Email is scanned on-delivery, or you can invoke on-demand email scans directly from Microsoft Outlook.
    Note: If you configure Heuristics and Artemis features, the email on-delivery and on-demand scanner uses heuristics to check for suspicious files. For details see, How Artemis works.
  • Lotus Notes — Allows you to configure:
    • When accessed, email is scanned.
    • When invoked, on-demand email scans directly from Lotus Notes.
    • Which Notes databases to exclude.

Configure the On-Delivery Email Scan Policies using the following user interface consoles.
