How it works
To activate the feature, simply select the policies settings menu in your Sophos Central Admin account. Here you can select your time zone, days of the week your users will receive a summary email and the time of day the email is sent.
- Once this feature is enabled, users will start receiving the email quarantine summary on a daily basis (subject to your custom schedule set in Sophos Central)
- End users can then simply release or permanently delete quarantined message by clicking on the “Release” or “Delete” links in the email. A link to the self-service portal is also available in the email if your users prefer
- Successful release of a quarantined message will then display a success status page
- If the release link is clicked again, the status page will show the message is already released
Remarks
- Updates will be automatically applied to your Sophos Email service in Sophos Central
- Any custom settings will be unaffected by the change
