An anonymous email is an email with an empty sender address. Anonymous email may contain undesired information, such as violence or pornography.
Upon detecting an email encapsulated in POP3 or IMAP, the FW implements anonymous mail check in the receiving direction. The recv-mail anonymity action command enables anonymous mail check in the receiving direction and configures the action for the detected anonymous emails.
By default, the anonymous mail check function is disabled. After you create a mail filtering profile view, anonymous mail check in the receiving direction is automatically enabled, and the default action is allow.
