Configuration and Customisation<br />
The configuration of the Anti-Spam<br />
protection settings found under<br />
the Protection settings menu is a<br />
key part of the implementation of<br />
the solution. From these settings,<br />
an Administrator specifies what<br />
protocols may be scanned for<br />
Spam (SMTP, POP3, or IMAP4), the<br />
sensitivity level that needs to be<br />
set for the Anti-Spam protection, the actions <strong>Panda</strong> <strong>GateDefender</strong><br />
<strong>Performa</strong> should perform on messages classified as Spam or Probably<br />
Spam, and white list and blacklist configuration. For the purposes of<br />
this test, engineers entered internal domain information, mail server<br />
settings, and an email address for redirection.<br />
Configuring the scanning is a simple process, merely consisting of<br />
enabling the appropriate checkbox on a per protocol basis, setting<br />
the required sensitivity level to Low, Medium, or High, and selecting<br />
the Action to take on messages classified as Probably Spam or Spam.<br />
There are additional settings available for whitelist and blacklist<br />
configuration. The whitelist and blacklist functionality may be<br />
configured by an Administrator to define a list of addresses, domains<br />
and/or IP addresses for which messages will not be scanned for Spam<br />
or for which messages will always be treated as Spam.<br />
The sensitivity level for the Anti-Spam protection specifies the tolerance<br />
level of the protection to suspicious messages. The Low sensitivity level<br />
provides the least protection against these types of messages, but this<br />
also means that it is highly improbable that the appliance will have a<br />
