Objects Created When the Anti-Spam Service is Enabled

This section provides an example of the type of rules and objects generated automatically as Firewall Access Rules, NAT Policies and Service Objects. These objects are not editable and will be removed if the Anti-Spam service is disabled.

The POLICY | Rules and Policies > Access Rules page shows the generated rules used for Anti-Spam.

The top row shows the access rules generated when Anti-Spam is activated. It is the default rule that Anti-Spam creates when there are no existing mail server policies.

You could also create the following access rules:

• WAN to WAN rule for incoming email (SMTP) from any source to all the WAN IP addresses
• WAN to LAN rule for processed email from Email Security Service to all the WAN IP address using the Anti-Spam service port (default:10025)

The Anti-Spam Service Object is created in the OBJECT | Match Objects > Services | Service Objects page.

This Service Object is referenced by the generated NAT policies.
