The solution features a powerful Web-based administration console that includes both an administrator and end user quarantine. Administrators can enforce company or departmental handling of spam and unwanted mail by using policies that perform different actions for different groups or users in an organization. Supported actions include message modification or deletion, forwarding to an administrative email account, or quarantining for administrator or end user review.
