What's new in 2015 Release 1?

The Spoofed Messages options on the Antispam tab now include a Verify "From" address displayed to end users check box. Select this to check if both the address the message recipient sees in the From: field and the envelope sender address match domains defined in your policies.

If you select this option, one of the following happens:

If the envelope sender address does not match one of your policies but the From: address does match, the cloud service performs message authenticity checks on the From: address.

If the envelope sender address matches one of your policies, the cloud service performs message authenticity checks on the envelope sender only.

If this option is not selected, the From: address is ignored and authenticity checks are performed only on the envelope sender if it matches one of your policies.

This option is disabled by default. If you have other organizations authorized to send messages on your behalf, you should ensure that your SPF records include the IP addresses of those organizations before enabling the option, otherwise those messages will be detected as spoofed.

Note that this feature is unrelated to the existing Apply whitelist matching on spoofed email addresses option, which is unchanged.

Bulk spam messages cannot be released via EUMRs

The "Release" option in the End-User Message Report has been removed for messages that were quarantined as bulk spam. Only administrators can release bulk spam messages via the cloud portal.

Improved EUMR processing in different timezones

The processing of EUMRs in different timezones has been improved in this release. When adding a new recipient on the Subscriptions tab, the Timezone drop-down list now includes locations rather than just offsets to GMT. The cloud service ensures that any alterations for the listed locations (for example, to daylight savings time) are set automatically.

If you imported subscriptions in bulk using a CSV file, you need to download and edit your current subscriptions so that they use location-based timezones rather than offsets. To assist with this, you can download a list of all the supported timezones in CSV format from the Bulk Upload tab.
