Michael Heinrich 0 Posted February 17 Share Posted February 17 Is there perhaps a slightly better solution that *.eml files are not automatically moved to the inbox after opening in the file system? Even if we change all systems (SAP...) not to generate eml but msg files, there are still thousands of data which cannot be changed. What risk exists in 2022 if the "E-MAILS TO BE SCANNED" - "Read e-mails" function is deactivated as a workaround? Files of type msg are also not copied to the inbox. Many thanks for the help!

Administrators Marcos 4,191 Posted February 17 Administrators Share Posted February 17 Does disabling scanning of read email work around the issue? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Heinrich 0 Posted February 17 Author Share Posted February 17 Hello Marcos, yes, the workaround works, but due to the current threat situation, I don't have a good feeling about deactivating such functions. A threat would certainly still be recognized and eliminated, or? What is the advantage of this function? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Solution Marcos 4,191 Posted February 17 Administrators Solution Share Posted February 17 There is no other workaround. However, even with scanning of read email disabled email will be scanned upon receipt or opening the attachment (real-time protection). A new Outlook plug-in that is being worked on should ultimately resolve issues like this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
