TRAFFIC CONTROL
After completing the security verification for mail, RiskFilter will forward it to the e-mail server according to
the route configuration. To protect e-mail systems from the impact of heavy traffic, Traffic Control is
designed to limit the mail traffic sent to the e-mail system. Use the Traffic Control screen to do this.
Figure 2 - 26 The Traffic Control screen
To set up traffic control:
1Select Send Settings > Traffic Control from the System Settings tab.
2 In the Maximum number of messages relayed to an internal e-mail server field, enter the
maximum number of messages that you want to be relayed to your internal e-mail server per hour.
This should be set up according to the incoming traffic setting of your e-mail server.
3 Click Submit to put the new settings into effect or Reset if you want to cancel the modifications made
to the current settings.
ADVANCED DELIVERY
If a delivery attempt fails because the e-mail server reports a receiving error, RiskFilter places the
message into the Deferred Messages queue. It then tries to deliver the message again according to
specified rules. You can specify how long RiskFilter continues to make delivery attempts, the maximum
retry period and the relevant actions to take after delivery has failed. Undeliverable messages are returned
to the original sender or, if this cannot be done, a message is sent to the specified postmaster account.
This is.accompanied by a copy of the original message. Use the Advanced Delivery screen to configure
delivery attempts.
