Installing the Junk Store

Anti-Spam can create a Junk Store on your Microsoft Exchange Server. The Junk Store quarantines messages for end-user analysis and provides statistics. Log in to your Exchange system, then open a browser to log in to the management interface, and install the Junk Store.

While SonicWall supports non-Exchange SMTP servers, such as Sendmail and Lotus Domino, it is not required to install the Junk Store on one of these servers. Similar to the SonicWall Email Security product, the CASS 2.0 feature allows you to install the Junk Store on a stand-alone server.

To fully utilize the newest functionality available with CASS 2.0, SonicWall recommends installing Junk Store on a stand-alone server.

To install the Junk Store

  1. Log in to your Exchange system.

  2. Open a web browser.

    To download and install the SonicWall Junk Store application, you need the following on the system where you will install the Junk Store application:

    • Internet Explorer 6 or above
    • Microsoft Exchange Server
    • Email Downloader ActiveX component for IE
  3. Log in to the SonicOS interface.
  4. Navigate to the POLICY | Anti-Spam > Settings page.

  5. Go to the SonicWall Junk Store Installer section.

  6. Click the Junk Store Installer icon to install the junk store on your Windows server.

    The first time the Junk Store application is installed, it takes about 5 - 15 minutes for the Junk Store to be operational.

  7. If your browser warns you that the Web site is trying to load the SonicWall Email Security add-on:

    1. Click in the Information Bar.
    2. Select Install ActiveX Control in the pop-up menu. The Security Warning Screen displays.
  8. Click Install to install the ActiveX Control.
  9. On the POLICY | Anti-Spam > Settings page, click the Junk Store Installer icon again. A progress bar is displayed on the page.
  10. The installer launches when it is fully downloaded.
  11. Migrating data to the Junk Store may take a long time to complete.
  12. Navigate to the POLICY | Anti-Spam > Status page and verify that the SonicWall Junk Store is Operational.
