  • I would atleast put it in Mail Transfer Agent (MTA) mode

    Overhere the SophosXG is recieving mail does mail scanning, drop spam and possible spam is in quarantine. Got a filter rate of 98% which is very good without false possitives in dropped mail.

    For sending I send to a smarthost directly, I could send it thru SophosXG but I am 99,9999% sure the mail send is already clean.
