Edit
.
  •
If the configuration is disabled, click

layer that contains the configuration. See

information.
Step 5
Specify the 
Ports
 where IMAP traffic should be decoded. Separate multiple port numbers with commas. 
Note
Any port you add to the POP port list should also be added to the TCP client reassembly list for 
each TCP policy. For information on configuring TCP reassembly ports, see 
Step 6
Specify the maximum bytes of data to extract and decode from any combination of the following email 
attachment types:
 •
Base64 Decoding Depth

 (includes various multipart content types such as plain text, jpeg 
images, mp3 files, and so on)
  •
Quoted-Printable Decoding Depth
  •
Unix-to-Unix Decoding Depth
For each type, you can specify from 1 to 65535 bytes, or specify 0 to extract and, when necessary, decode 
all data in the packet. Specify -1 to ignore data for an attachment type.
You can use the 
file_data
 rule keyword in intrusion rules to inspect the attachment data. See 
 for more information.
Step 7
Optionally, click 
Configure Rules for POP Configuration
 at the top of the page to display rules associated with 
individual options.
Click

Step 8
Save your policy, continue editing, discard your changes, revert to the default configuration settings in 
the base policy, or exit while leaving your changes in the system cache. See the 
 table for more information.
