Configuring a quarantine database
In addition to the option for using the Microsoft SQL server for whitelists, the server can also
be used locally with quarantine databases. The index for a quarantine is regularly listed in the
local database (Microsoft Jet engine). If the capacity of a Jet database is not sufficient, you can
also save these entries in a locally installed SQL server. You must have installed MS SQL on the
email server for this purpose.

the handling of emails in the event of a quarantine error.
If a quarantine is set to ‘mission critical’, any quarantine errors that occur are reported to the
job. The job is then canceled and the error routine of this job is started. The way in which the
email is dealt with, i.e. whether the job ignores the email or moves it to the bad mail directory,
