What kind of anti-spam mechanism offers the appliance other than RBL lookups?

I cannot understand what kind of analysys the appliance performs against the mail flow.  How can i verify that the appliance performed an anti-spam check? Is there a log level which can be raised to let analyze the anti-spam engine activity?

  • I changed the added text in each of the checking rules.

    At this stage I haven't seen the XG actaully block any spam mail, just changes the headers or subject line. Also be aware that some message will have junk added into the body.

    I am hoping the MR3 or v16 will actually offer the ability quarantine the spam messages.

  • Hi Ian,

    If the mail is fetched over POP3 protocol and detected as Spam, XG will not drop such mail(s) instead add a header indicating it as a Spam. 

    Thanks
