Important 
Prior to installing SMTP agent, be sure to prepare for installation as described in Preparing a machine for the SMTP agent.
It receives all outbound email from the mail server and forwards it to a Websense Data Security Policy Engine. The SMTP agent then receives the analyzed email back from the policy engine and forwards it to the mail gateway. When installed on the Data Security Management server or supplemental Data Security server, the SMTP agent uses the local policy engine of those servers to analyze email, unless load balancing has been configured, in which case it uses the specified policy engine. The SMTP agent supports permit, block, and encrypt actions.
See SMTP agent for more information.
