Blacklisted Requests
- The 'Quarantine' interface lets users view emails intended for them but moved to quarantine.
- The interface also lets users request that senders of quarantined mails are added to the blacklist.
- The blacklist request will be sent to you via email and also added to the Email Management > Blacklist Requests interface. You can approve or reject the requests.
- Senders added to the blacklist after a request will only be blacklisted for the requester.
- Subsequent mails from the sender to the user in question will be rejected. This applies even if the sender is in the general sender whitelist.
- See Sender Whitelist and Blacklist Senders Per User for more details.
