In this tab, reactions of SpIDer Mail to detection of infected or suspicious files in e-mail are specified.

Actions Setup

To set actions on virus threats detection, use the following options:

The Infected messages drop-down list, set the SpIDer Mail reaction to the detection of a letter containing an infected object.

The Suspicious messages drop-down list, set the SpIDer Mail reaction to the detection of a letter containing an object presumably infected with a virus (upon a reaction of the heuristic analyzer).

The Not checked messages drop-down list, set the SpIDer Mail reaction to the detection of unchecked letters.

The Delete modified messages on server flag is set by default. It instructs to delete messages incoming from a POP3/IMAP4 server for which the Delete or Quarantine action is specified, regardless of the mail program settings.

Set the Insert 'X-AntiVirus' header into messages flag to add to all scanned messages the following headers:

X-DrWeb-SpamState: Yes/No. Yes shows that the message is spam. No says that SpIDer Mail does not regard the message as spam.

X-DrWeb-SpamVersion: version. Version – version of the Vade Retro spam filter library.

Possible Reactions

The following actions for detected virus threats are available:

Delete – in this case the mail guard does not pass a message to the mail client; instead of a deleted message, the mail program receives a notification of the action performed.

Quarantine – in this case a message is placed to the Quarantine; it is also not transferred to the mail program, the mail program receives a notification of the action made.

Skip – to transfer messages to the mail program as usually.

 

For outgoing messages any setting other than Skip results in the denial to pass the message to a SMTP server.
