What is Proofpoint End User Digest?
What can you do with Proofpoint End User Digest email?
Opening the End User Digest email displays an email listing of the suspected spam messages.
- Release - releases the email from quarantine and delivers it to your inbox. (Note: if you have a Junk E-mail or spam filter enabled on your desktop mail client such as Outlook, the filter may also place the released email into a Junk folder. Consequently, if you do not see the released email in your inbox, check your mail client's Junk folder).
- Allow Sender – allows all future emails from this sender to your inbox.
-
Block Sender – blocks all future emails from this sender to your inbox.
Three additional links are located at the bottom of the End User Digest email.
-
Request New End User Digest - sends you an updated End User Digest reflecting all of your quarantined emails plus any email filtered since your last digest was sent.
- Request Safe/Blocked Senders List - sends a summary of your Safe and Blocked Senders. The summary includes further links to add or delete senders.
- Manage My Account - opens a web page that accesses your account on the Protection Server. You may view quarantined messages, access your safe/blocked senders list, and perform other management functions.
