Queues
Any isolated e-mails are moved to different queues (depending on
the the type of message) for safe keeping. You can then release,
move or delete them. These directories also show the activity logs.
See Queue Manager in
the Policy Manager
chapter.
Filters
Filters govern whether a message should be delivered or isolated.
Use the supplied filters: Anti-Virus, Anti-Spam and Internet Threat
Database, or create your own custom filters to catch specific
messages.
