    Hi,

    In Brightmail Gateway 8.0, is there a way to manually filter a spam e-mail based on certain keywords?

     Hi Keith,

    Check out the section of the admin guide around Compliance Policy - which is just content filtering under a rather undescriptive name :)

    Hope that helps,

    Yes definitely Brightmail can do that. A content compliance policy is a set of simple and complex conditions and actions that determine how email message content and attributes are evaluated and how the email is handled as a result of that evaluation.

    You can configure compliance policies to filter content:

    • Block email from marketing lists that generate user complaints or use up excessive bandwidth.
    • Block or redirect messages or attachments with specific content or specific file attachment types or filenames.
    • Control message volume and preserve disk space by filtering out oversized messages.
    • Prevent confidential or sensitive information from being sent to competitors.
    • Limit ability of email users to communicate language or conduct activities contrary to your organization's values and policies.
