Cisco Cisco Email Security Appliance C170 Guia Do Utilizador

If you use spam notifications, the spam quarantine alias consolidation query consolidates the email 
aliases so that recipients do not receive quarantine notices for each alias. For example, a recipient might 
receive mail for the following email addresses: john@example.com, jsmith@example.com, and 
john.smith@example.com. When you use alias consolidation, the recipient receives a single spam 
notification at a chosen primary email address for messages sent to all of the user’s aliases. 

To consolidate messages to a primary email address, create a query to search for a recipient’s alternate 
email aliases, and then enter the attribute for the recipient’s primary email address in the Email Attribute 
field. 

If you want the Spam Quarantine to use an LDAP query for spam notifications, check the “Designate as 
the active query” check box. If there is an existing active query, it is disabled. When you open the System 
Administration > LDAP page, an asterisk (*) is displayed next to the active queries.

For Active Directory servers, the default query string is 

(|(proxyAddresses={a})(proxyAddresses=smtp:{a}))

 and the default email attribute is 

mail

. For 

OpenLDAP servers, the default query string is 

(mail={a})

 and the default email attribute is 

mail

. You 

can define your own query and email attributes, including multiple attributes separated by commas. If 
you enter more than one email attribute, Cisco recommends entering a unique attribute that uses a single 
value, such as 

mail

, as the first email attribute instead of an attribute with multiple values that can 

change, such as 

proxyAddresses

.

To create the query in the CLI, use the 

isqalias

 subcommand of the 

ldapconfig

 command.

This section shows sample settings for an Active Directory server and the alias consolidation query. This 
example uses anonymous authentication for the Active Directory server, a query string for alias 
consolidation for Active Directory servers, and the 

mail

 email attribute.
