Whitelisting Feature Guide

Graphus will skip processing any inbound email with attributes that match the whitelisted parameters. No Quarantine or EmployeeShield® functionalities in Graphus will be applied to such emails. There are four different types of whitelisting capabilities provided on the platform:

  1. Whitelist Sender Domain: The sender domain is the domain name of email addresses. Example, john@kaseya.com is the sender's email address, and kaseya.com is the sender's domain. This option whitelists the sender domain and skips processing inbound emails whose sender email address has the configured domain.
  2. Whitelist SMTP Mail From Domain: This option whitelists a combination of the sender domain and an SPF value. Skip processing inbound emails whose SMTP Mail from the domain and the SPF value match the configured values.
  3. Whitelist IP Address: This is the IP address from which the email has been sent. Skip processing inbound emails whose IP Address matches the configured values.
  4. SMTP Mail From and Sender Domain: You can whitelist a combination of the Sender Domain and SMTP Mail from the domain and SPF value. Meaning, this is a mechanism where specific emails that are coming from mail services like salesforces, email chains, or any authorized organizations can be whitelisted. This will reduce the scope of the SMTP mail from the whitelist and skip processing inbound emails whose sender email address has the configured domain and SMTP Mail from the domain. 

In the Whitelisting section, none of the toggle buttons were selected by default. Provide a domain name in the row and choose one of the four options from the area.
