The Quarantine tab provides an interface for managing PureMessage quarantines, which are directories for
temporarily storing problem or potential problem messages. Typically, quarantines are
used for potential spam messages that can be reviewed later by administrators or end
users to determine if they want to release (deliver) or delete them, or for
virus-infected messages that you choose to retain for legal, organizational policy, or
forensic reasons.
In addition, you can access many End User and Quarantine Digest options.
Quarantine Tab: Summary (Default) Page
The Quarantine: Summary page displays a graph that shows essential information
about the PureMessage Quarantine. The graph
shows:
- the maximum disk space available for the quarantine on the local system
- the size of the total quarantined messages in the current reporting period (two
hours)
- the number of newly quarantined messages in the current reporting period (two
hours)
Click on the graph to shift focus to the Reports tab, where you
can change the report parameters.
Click View Quarantine Summary to return to this page from another Quarantine
page.
Note: You can also generate, view, and export reports using the reporting
options available via the Reports tab in the PureMessage Groups Web Interface. Although it is
primarily used to delegate tasks under the group administration model, the Groups
Web Interface can be configured as a reports manager. You may want to consider this
alternative if your organization generates a lot of reports and you are comfortable
managing PureMessage with multiple
interfaces. See "Viewing and Managing Quarantine Search Results" in the
"Administrative Groups" section of the Administrator's
Reference for more information.
