ESMTP Inspect Map
The ESMTP Inspect Map dialog box is accessible as follows:
Configuration> Global Objects > Inspect Maps > ESMTP
The ESMTP pane lets you view previously configured ESMTP application inspection maps. An ESMTP
map lets you change the default configuration values used for ESMTP application inspection.
Since ESMTP traffic can be a main source of attack from spam, phising, malformed messages, buffer
overflows, and buffer underflows, detailed packet inspection and control of ESMTP traffic are
supported. Application security and protocol conformance enforce the sanity of the ESMTP message as
well as detect several attacks, block senders and receivers, and block mail relay.
