Usage Guidelines

Upon detecting an email encapsulated in SMTP, the FW performs mail address check in the sending direction. Both the sender address and receiver addresses of the email can be used as the filtering condition in the sending direction. You can use the send-mail sender filter-mode command to configure the action for emails matching the mail address check condition when sender-address-based mail filtering is configured.

The default action is block.

Example

# Allow email to be sent from the specified sender only.

<sysname> system-view
[sysname] profile type mail-filter name abc
[sysname-profile-mail-filter-abc] send-mail sender filter-mode allow
