Table 2-3. Setup Wizard Step 4: Email Security Settings (continued)
Setting Description (or Subfield and Description)
IMAP From the IMAP pull-down menu, specify one of the following actions when an infected e-mail is
detected:
• Quarantine attachment. The e-mail is not blocked, but the attachment is removed and
placed in the malware quarantine for further research. In addition, and depending on the
nature of the malware, a virus log entry or spyware log entry is created.
• Delete attachment. This is the default setting. The e-mail is not blocked, but the attachment
is deleted, and a log entry is created.
• Log only. Only a log entry is created. The e-mail is not blocked and the attachment is not
deleted.
Scan Exceptions
From the pull-down menu, select to Block or Skip any email attachment that exceeds the size that you
specify in the file size field. For the STM600 and STM300, the default setting is to block any attachment
larger than 10240 KB. For the STM150, the default setting is to block any attachment larger than 8192 KB.
Note: Setting the maximum file size to a high value might affect the STM's performance. NETGEAR
recommends the default value, which is sufficient to detect the vast majority of threats.
