Quarantine Report E-Mail

The e-mailed Quarantine Report will probably be your primary interface with the MailCleaner filtering system. It includes a direct link to the web interface for newer or older messages and all other advanced tasks.
Newsletter filtering is enabled by default and can greatly assist in keeping your e-mail inbox clean. With newsletter filtering enabled, you will have to 'accept' any newsletters or commercial mail you always want to receive.
