OmniMessaging performs the following:
Filter out unwanted message.
3. Scan messages for rules.
4. Scan messages for virus.
Rules:
System / Domain /User level rules are defined in database.
Rules can be applied to part of message like “Header” “Body” etc.
Virus Scan:
Message attachments will be scanned by PC based virus scan engine
Protocol for the communication is virus engine based.
If a message is found to violate the rules set by the Content-Parser or Parental
Control engine then take one of the following actions.
a. Forward to parent: whole / partial
b. Move message to spam folder
c. Delete message
d. Quarantine such attachment.
Thus specific actions can be taken based on the rule-violation.
Thus when the message is received by the MTA, virus-scanning is performed prior to storing it in
the database. The MTA server passes it on to the SCAN server, that applies the rules. The user or
administrator can configure the rules based on whether it is user-specific or system-specific.
