Mail released by the Security Management appliance is delivered to the primary and secondary hosts
(Cisco appliance or other groupware host) as defined in the Spam Quarantine Settings (see the
Cisco Content Security Management Appliance User Guide). Therefore, regardless of the number of
Cisco appliances delivering mail to the Security Management appliance, all released mail, notifications,
and alerts are sent to a single host (groupware or Cisco appliance). Take care to not overburden the
primary host for delivery from the Security Management appliance.
