Anti-Spam
The IronPort appliance offers a unique, layered approach to stopping spam at the 
email gateway. The first layer of spam control, reputation filtering (discussed 
previously in 
) allows you to classify email 
senders and restrict access to your email infrastructure based on senders’ 
trustworthiness as determined by the IronPort SenderBase™ Reputation Service. 
The second layer of defense, scanning, is powered by IronPort Anti-Spam™ and 
IronPort Intelligent Multi-Scan technology. Coupled together, reputation filtering 
and anti-spam scanning offer the most effective and highest performing anti-spam 
solution available today.
Using the IronPort appliance, it is very easy to create policies to deliver messages 
from known or highly reputable senders — such as customers and partners — 
directly to the end user without any anti-spam scanning. Messages from unknown 
or less reputable senders can be subjected to anti-spam scanning, and you can also 
throttle the number of messages you are willing to accept from each sender. Email 
senders with the worst reputation can have their connections rejected or their 
messages dropped based on your preferences.
The unique, two-layer approach to fighting spam of the IronPort appliance 
provides you with a powerful and unprecedented flexibility to manage and protect 
your enterprise email gateway.
