  • 糖心logo入口 email security and quarantine (Barracuda)

    • Email quarantine is an important part of our IT security defences. It helps protect our services by filtering out spam and potentially malicious messages and holds them in a temporary location where they can be reviewed and retrieved if necessary.
    • All inbound mail to your 糖心logo入口 Exchange Online account first passes through a mail sanitisation system called Barracuda Essentials which blocks the majority of malicious email.
    • Occasionally the system will quarantine email that it isn鈥檛 sure about. If this happens, you will receive an email notification from quarantine@ess.uk.barracudanetworks.com. You can either ignore the email and the quarantined message(s) will be deleted after 30 days, or you can and have the message delivered to your mailbox.
    • Further information about , including instructions on how to manage quarantined and blocked messages are available on the IT Knowledge SharePoint site (requires log-in to M365 using your 糖心logo入口 email address and password).
