MSP 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 part of an email address. For example, kaseya.com is a sender domain while john@kaseya.com is a sender's email address. This option will whitelist the sender domain and skip processing inbound emails whose sender email address includes the configured domain.

  2. Whitelist SMTP Mail From Domain: The SMTP mail from domain is the domain specified during the SMTP transaction in the MAIL FROM section of the SMTP envelope. This option whitelists a combination of the sender domain and an SPF value. Processing will be skipped for inbound emails whose SMTP MAIL FROM domain and the SPF value match the configured values.

  3. Whitelist IP Address: This is the originating IP address of the SMTP server that sent the email. This option will skip processing inbound emails whose IP address matches the configured values.

  4. SMTP Mail From and Sender Domain:This option combines the sender domain, SMTP MAIL FROM domain, and SPF value. It ensures precise whitelisting for emails coming from mail services like Salesforce and email chains. The SMTP Mail From and Sender Domain reduces the scope of whitelisting. Processing will be skipped for an inbound email only when its sender domain, SMTP MAIL FROM domain, and SPF value match the configured values.
