4.3.3.1 Adding addresses to whitelist and blacklist
Email addresses belonging to people you communicate with frequently can be added to the whitelist to ensure that no
message originating from a whitelist address is ever classified as spam. Known spam addresses can be added to the
blacklist and always be classified as spam. To add a new address to the whitelist or blacklist, right-click the email and
select ESET Endpoint Security > Add to Whitelist or Add to Blacklist, or click the Trusted address or Spam address
button in the ESET Endpoint Security Antispam toolbar in your email client.
Similarly, this process applies to spam addresses. If an email address is listed on the blacklist, each email message which
arrives from that address is classified as spam.
4.3.3.2 Marking messages as spam
Any message viewed in your email client can be marked as spam. To do so, right-click the message and click ESET
Endpoint Security > Reclassify selected messages as spam, or click Spam address in the ESET Endpoint Security
Antispam toolbar located in the upper section of your email client.
Reclassified messages are automatically moved to the SPAM folder, but the sender's email address is not added to the
Blacklist. Similarly, messages can be classified as “not spam”. If messages from the Junk E-mail folder are classified as
not spam, they are moved to their original folder. Marking a message as not spam does not automatically add the
sender's address to the Whitelist.
4.3.4 Protocol filtering
Antivirus protection for the application protocols is provided by the ThreatSense scanning engine, which seamlessly
integrates all advanced malware scanning techniques. The control works automatically, regardless of the Internet
browser or email client used. For encrypted (SSL) communication see Protocol filtering > SSL.
Enable application protocol content filtering – If enabled, all HTTP(S), POP3(S) and IMAP(S) traffic will be checked by
the antivirus scanner.
NOTE: Starting with Windows Vista Service Pack 1, Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008, the new Windows Filtering
Platform (WFP) architecture is used to check network communication. Since the WFP technology uses special
monitoring techniques, the following options are not available:
HTTP and POP3 ports – Limits routing the traffic to the internal proxy server only for HTTP and POP3 ports.
Applications marked as web browsers and email clients – Limits routing the traffic to the internal proxy server
only for the applications marked as browsers and email clients (Web and email > Protocol filtering > Web and
email clients).
Ports and applications marked as web browsers or email clients – Enables routing of all traffic on HTTP and POP3
ports as well as all the communication of the applications marked as browsers and email clients on the internal proxy
server.
4.3.4.1 Web and email clients
NOTE: Starting with Windows Vista Service Pack 1 and Windows Server 2008, the new Windows Filtering Platform
(WFP) architecture is used to check network communication. Since the WFP technology uses special monitoring
techniques, the Web and email clients section is not available.
Because of the enormous amount of malicious code circulating the Internet, safe Internet browsing is a very important
aspect of computer protection. Web browser vulnerabilities and fraudulent links help malicious code enter the system
unnoticed which is why ESET Endpoint Security focuses on web browser security. Each application accessing the
network can be marked as an Internet browser. The checkbox is two-state:
Unticked – Communication of applications is filtered only for specified ports.
Ticked – Communication is always filtered (even if a different port is set).
