Test your mail policy
Modify the policy for testing
You may find it useful to modify your content security policy for testing purposes to hold all processed messages, even clean ones. This will allow you to determine how Secure Email Gateway has processed each message.
If you are using the supplied starter policy, you can modify it to hold clean messages as follows:
- Create a new disposal action to hold messages in a message area named, say, test-clean.
- Edit the "Anyone to My Company" and "My Company to Anyone" policy routes to change their default disposal actions to your new "Hold in test-clean" disposal action.
- Apply the configuration.
When you have finished testing, remember to reverse these policy edits and re-apply the configuration.
Test policy routing
Try sending test messages into and out of the system to confirm the mail routes are producing the results you were expecting. From the Messages menu, you can view the policy summary for each held message. This tells you the mail route the message matched, as well as which content rules the message triggered and which nodes in the message caused those rules to trigger. For more information on viewing the policy summary for a held message, see Analyze and manage held messages.
