Understanding E-Mail Virus-Detected Notifications

For mail protocols (SMTP, POP3, IMAP), e-mail notification is used to notify the sender or the recipient about the detected viruses or the scanning errors. There are three settings for e-mail notifications:

• virus-detection/notify-mail-sender — This setting is used when a virus is detected. If it is enabled, an e-mail is sent to the sender upon virus detection.
• fallback-block/notify-mail-sender — This setting is used when other scan codes or scanning errors are returned and the message is dropped. If it is enabled, an e-mail is sent to the sender when an error code is returned.
• fallback-non-block/notify-mail-recipient — This setting is used when other scan codes or scanning errors are returned and the message is passed. If it is enabled, the e-mail sent to the recipient is tagged when an error code is returned.
