GFI MailEssentials 7 Anti-Spam | 146
NOTE
The email address should NOT be a local domain. The default address is
[e-mail]. A mailbox for the configured address does not need
to exist, but the domain-part of the address must consist of a real email address domain
that returns a positive result to an MX-record lookup via DNS. This can also be a public
email account that you can manage (for example gmail or yahoo mail)
3. Optionally, configure some basic security for remote commands:
A shared password to include in the email. For more information, refer to Using remote
