Specifying Actions for "Virus" Rules Main Actions

Procedure

1. Configure Intercept settings.

   Tip Trend Micro recommends selecting Quarantine as the default action for messages detected by ATSE. IMSVA stores suspicious messages in Quarantine to allow Virtual Analyzer to complete its analysis.

   Option	Description
   Do not intercept messages	This specific rule does not intercept messages. If there are other rules, IMSVA will process the message. If there are no rules, IMSVA passes the message to your network.
   Delete entire message	Deletes the message and all attachments.
   Quarantine to	IMSVA puts the message and its attachments into the quarantine area that you select from the drop-down box.
   Change recipient to	IMSVA sends the message to another recipient. Specify the recipient email address and separate multiple recipients with a semicolon (;).
   Handoff	IMSVA hands off the message to a specific mail server. Select Handoff if you have a secure messaging server on your network that can process or handle the message. Configure the following: Next to Host, specify the FQDN or IP address of the mail server. Next to Port, specify the port number through which the mail server receives email traffic. Note IMSVA can only track a message before it is handed off. After the handoff, the message is not traceable anymore as it is no longer within the control of IMSVA.
