Yes, cPFence provides email protection, including virus-infected attachments, spam, and suspicious URLs. While the free version offers basic protection, it's important to note that the paid version delivers much faster detection and response times, ensuring near-instant blockage of threats. This makes the paid version ideal for businesses or users with mission-critical servers who require top-tier security. For those with less immediate needs, the free version still offers solid, reliable protection, though with slightly slower performance.
Regarding spam or suspicious URLs, we only quarantine emails containing URLs flagged by at least two reputable email spam block services, meaning they are very likely to be spam. You can also whitelist specific email addresses with this command:
cpfence --exclude-path /var/local/enhance/email/mailboxes/6f8a2f88-093e-4f8f-9e60-0da1c12d8bbc/[email protected]/
Or you can go further and disable email protection entirely using this command:
cpfence --exclude-path /var/local/enhance/email/mailboxes/
This will exclude all email addresses from being flagged, offering more flexibility if needed.
