Generating Quarantine Digests

Three programs are used to generate and administer quarantine digests. They are: pmx-qdigest, pmx-qdigest-approve and pmx-qdigest-expire. These programs are run automatically as scheduled jobs. See "Scheduling Digest Tasks" for the recommended settings for the scheduled jobs.

These scheduled jobs are used to automatically perform the following tasks:

Note: Some email clients (such as Microsoft Outlook) have built-in message filtering that can be optionally enabled by the end user. These filters can result in quarantine digests being filtered by the end user's email client. Users can either disable their local mail client filter, or can adjust the filter to exclude PureMessage quarantine digests. See "Exempting Digests from Local Filters" for instructions on the latter.
