2. Select the Notify Alert Manager checkbox to have the E-Mail Scan
extension send alert messages to Alert Manager for distribution.
Alert Manager is a separate McAfee software component that collects
alert messages and uses a variety of methods to send them to recipients
that you specify. To have the extension send these alert messages
successfully, you must also set up the Alert Manager Client
Configuration utility.
Configuration utility" on page 281
You can pass alert messages directly to an Alert Manager server, or you
can send alert messages as text (.ALR) files to a Centralized Alerting
directory that the Alert Manager server checks periodically.
Š
NOTE: Clearing this checkbox tells the E-Mail Scan extension not to
send an alert message via Alert Manager, but does not affect other
alert messages that you configure in this property page.
As part of your anti-virus warning system, the E-Mail Scan extension can
reply directly with an alert message to anybody who sends you an
infected message or attachment. You can copy that message to any other
recipient in your organization, or any number of other recipients.
