McAfee Security for Microsoft Exchange 8.6.0

Configure Anti-spoof protection

Enable Anti-spoof protection to protect your systems from spoofing emails.

Before you begin

You must have installed McAfee Anti-spam component on the Exchanger server.

Task
1 Navigate to Settings & Diagnostics | Anti-Spam
2 In the SPF Filter section, select Enable.
3 Configure the action for Hard Fail and Soft Fail as required.
Allow Through — Allows the email to the recipient.
Allow Through and Quarantine — Allows the email to the recipient and keeps a copy in the quarantined items.
Reject Mail and Quarantine — Blocks and quarantines the email.
Enabling this option might impact the product performance as Anti-spoofing queries the DNS servers, and it has dependency on the network latency.
