to protect.
Step 5: Configuring incoming antispam and antivirus settings
Step 5 of the Quick Start Wizard enables or disables antivirus scanning and configures the
intensity level of antispam scanning for email incoming to protected domains.
Each antispam level (Off, Low, Medium, and High) is a default antispam profile that groups
settings for many antispam features. After completing the Quick Start Wizard, if you want
to enable, disable, or differently configure those features, you can use the advanced mode
of the web-based manager to create and/or modify the antispam profiles.
To proceed to Step 6: Configuring access control rules and outgoing antispam and
antivirus settings, select Next >.
