G DATA 365 | Mail Protection
The quarantine
The quarantine lists infected e-mails.
You can see the most important e-mail information at a glance with details of
-
the sender,
-
the recipient,
-
the subject,
-
the delivery date,
-
as well as the mail ID.
If an e-mail was moved to quarantine, parts of the e-mail were recognized as infected. Either when the e-mail was received or during a rescan. If you have specified in the server settings that you want to manage the quarantine of the Microsoft Exchange Online via our G DATA Web-Portal, these e-mails are also in the list.
There are several options for dealing with these quarantined emails.
Delete e-mails
You can remove an individual e-mail from quarantine by clicking on the Delete e-mail button on the e-mail’s details page. The detail window opens by clicking on the overview line of the e-mail.
Multiple e-mails can be deleted by marking the e-mails with a tick and selecting Delete selection from the menu. The three dots to open the menu appear as soon as you mark one of the e-mails with a tick.
Older e-mails are automatically deleted after 30 days, unless you have defined a different retention period for e-mails in the behavior menu a different retention period for e-mails in quarantine.
View e-mail
Mails in this list you can be viewed by clicking . On the left-hand side you will find the header and the content of the e-mail.
The detail window opens on the right-hand side of the screen. Here you can see which component of the e-mail has been targeted by the G DATA 365 | Mail Protection protection components (attachment, URL, etc.). The information from the overview line is also listed here.
Release e-mails
You can send a single e-mail to the recipient by clicking on the Share e-mail button on the e-mail details page. The detail window opens by clicking on the overview line of the e-mail.
We advise you to proceed with caution when deciding to forward an e-mail that has been reported as infected. Never release an e-mail based on assumptions alone. The mere fact that you know the sender of an e-mail or a specific website does not justify a false positive. It can never be ruled out that senders of e-mails or website operators are themselves victims of a virus outbreak and unknowingly spread the infection. If in doubt, download the e-mail (see paragraph download e-mail) and have the detection checked by us! |
Multiple e-mails can be deleted by marking the e-mails with a tick and selecting Release selection from the menu. The menu can be opened via the three dots that appear as soon as you place a tick.
