Using TLS authentication (Transport Layer Security)

If a message is sent via TLS then RiskFilter will be able to receive it, if STARTTLS Advertisement is enabled. However, if your mail server will only accept messages that are sent using TLS, then TLS must be enabled in RiskFilter in order for mail to be delivered to this server. See Certificate on page 25 for more information.

To set up domain-based delivery:

1Select Send Settings > Domain-Based Delivery from the System Settings tab.

2You will see the Default Routing Method that is supplied with the product.

Figure 2 - 25 The supplied Default Routing Method

3Click Edit

4Enter or edit the domain name in the Description field if necessary.

5Select your domain from the Domain list box in the Destination Domain Names section.

6Click Add>> to add the domain to the list on the right. If you need to remove a domain from this list click Remove>>.

7Select Forward mail to the following SMTP server(s).

8Enter the IP address of the SMTP server into the Server address field.

9Enter the port number into the Port field. The default port number is 25.

10Click Add>> to add the server to the list on the right.

11RiskFilter supports the transferring of messages via the security protocol TLS. It will always RECEIVE messages sent by TLS transfer regardless of it’s settings. However, if your mail server requires TLS authentication to DELIVER mail, then you must enable TLS mail delivery.

To enable TLS delivery, select My server(s) require communication over transport layer security.

Note: if your server does not require TLS for mail delivery, do NOT select this feature as this will stop settings from being submitted.

12For more information on TLS see Certificate on page 25.

13Select My server(s) require authentication if you want users to supply a username and password before they can access the server.

14Enter a valid user name and password for authentication into the relevant fields.

15Click Submit to put the new settings into effect or Reset if you want to cancel the modifications made to the current settings.
