Email Protection Administrator Guide
The Sender Allow and Sender Deny lists are used in combination with the user-level
Allow and Deny lists that can be defined for specific user accounts. In the case of a
conflicting entry (for example, the same email address is in the user-level Allow list and
the Sender Deny list at the policy set level), the lists defined in these tabs override the
user-level lists.
The allowed maximum of items for each list is defined at the system level and may vary
for different installations of Email Protection.

Allow Email from a Specific Address

You can define a list of sender addresses whose email will always be accepted without
email filtering. The exception is that virus filtering is always applied if licensed for that
policy set, unless overridden by the user-level policy configurations. In addition, the user-
level Deny list will override the policy set-level Sender Allow list.
You can add individual addresses one a time or you can add them with a batch file. See
Add Allow, Deny, or Recipient Shield Addresses with a Batch File
