• Cache Setting – Select the option that corresponds to how you want to treat Address Caching:
– Enable Partial Address Caching – This is the default setting. Enter a value into the Maximum
Cache Entry field to specify how many entries should be stored in the memory cache. The
default is 10000.
– Disable Address Caching – No addresses will be cached.
• Cache Timeout – When Enable Partial Address Caching is enabled, addresses of all e-mails
passing through RiskFilter are checked against the validation server. E-mails from valid addresses
are delivered, and the addresses held in cache for a set time. If an e-mail is sent from a previously
validated address within this cache timeout, the e-mail is delivered without contacting the
validation server. However, if another e-mail is sent from this address after the cache timeout, the
server will be contacted again to validate the address. The default is 60.
