Cisco Cisco Content Security Management Appliance M1070 Guida Utente

A Spam Quarantine holds spam and suspected spam messages for email users in your organization. The 
spam quarantine provides a safeguard mechanism for organizations that are concerned about “false 
positives” — that is, legitimate email messages that are quarantined or deleted as spam. This feature 
allows end users and administrators to review messages that are flagged as spam before making a final

exercise control over which messages are marked as spam.

A local Spam Quarantine resides on an Email Security gateway appliance. You can also have messages 
sent to an external  Spam Quarantine, which resides on a separate content security appliance — typically 
a Cisco Content Security Management appliance. 

You can implement end user access to the  Spam Quarantine only for specified users or groups of users. 
Also, after you initially implement end user access, you might later decide to disable access if end users 
rarely view and release messages in the quarantine.

You can configure AsyncOS to send a notification email to end users, informing them of quarantined 
spam and suspected spam messages. The notification contains a summary of the messages currently in 
the  Spam Quarantine for that user. The user can view the messages and decide whether to have them
