New & Improved |
|
Alert when blocked sanitized content is delivered to recipient(s) |
MetaDefender Email Gateway Security now supports a new option to send email alerts when an email with blocked sanitized content is delivered to email recipient(s). With this option Email Gateway Security can warn administrators of such an event. For details see the Email alerts section in 3.5.1 Configuration. Note MetaDefender Email Gateway Security will only deliver blocked sanitized content to recipient(s) when the option 'Send sanitized version of blocked files' is enabled. For further details, see the Advanced scan settings section in 4.2 Security rules.
|
Override option to bypass email modification failure |
MetaDefender Email Gateway Security can now be configured to bypass email modification in the unlikely event where the product fails to apply its regular modifications. In this case the product will still attempt to apply the bypass disclaimer informing the user of the issue. For details, see Advanced scan settings in 4.2 Security rules. |
Fixed |
|
Failure to download sanitized content from MetaDefender Core |
MetaDefender Email Gateway Security could randomly encounter 404 (Not Found) returned by MetaDefender Core while attempting to download sanitized content (with a subsequent scan failure and retry). This fix should eliminate or dramatically reduce the risk of these occurrences. |
Email(s) can be stuck in Reprocessing/Resending state |
In case of an abnormal/unexpected service termination, some emails could end up stuck in Reprocessing/Resending state. |
Duplicate processing history entries |
The processing history entry ' EmailReceived' could be duplicated for quarantined emails. |
