UTM 9 identified the incoming email as possible spam, but it lets it through

We are running Sophos UTM 9 on AWS marketplace and everything is up to date.

One of our users is getting a lot of spam a day, I had a look at the headers of the emails, the headers all look something below.

It seems that UTM marks it as possible spam but let it through, I am just wondering why it wasn't blocked?

  • Hi Johnny and welcome to the UTM Community!

    As Dirk said, that's not an email that went through the UTM's SMTP Proxy.  If it had, you would see something like the below in the headers.
