Cisco Cisco Email Security Appliance C170 Guia Do Utilizador

Each row in the Email Security Manager represents a different policy. Each column represents a different 
security service. 

To edit the default policy, click any of the links for a security service in the bottom row of the Email 
Security Manager incoming or outgoing mail policy table.

In this example, you will change the anti-spam settings for the default policy for incoming mail to be 
more aggressive. The default value is to quarantine positively identified and suspected spam messages, 
with marketing email scanning disabled. This example shows how to change the setting so that positively 
identified spam is dropped. Suspected spam continues to be quarantined. Marketing email scanning is 
enabled, with marketing messages being delivered to the intended recipients. The subjects of marketing 
messages will be prepended with the text 

[MARKETING]

. 

Click the link for the anti-spam security service. The Anti-Spam settings page shown in 

 is 

displayed. 

For default security service settings, the first setting on the page defines whether the service is 
enabled for the policy. You can click “Disable” to disable the service altogether.

In the “Positively Identified Spam Settings” section, change the “Action to apply to this message” to 
Drop.

In the “Marketing Email Settings” section, click Yes to enable marketing email scanning.

If enabled, the default action is to deliver legitimate marketing messages while prepending the 
subject with the text 

[MARKETING]

.

The “Add text to message” field only accepts US-ASCII characters.

Click Submit. The Incoming Mail Policies table page is re-displayed. Note that the summary link for 
the anti-spam security service has changed to reflect the new values. 

Similar to the steps above, you can change the default anti-virus and virus outbreak filter settings 
for the default policy.
