Q: What should I do if I didn't receive a Spam Quarantine Report today?

A: Spam Quarantine Reports (SQR) are delivered every weekday by default, assuming Spam Soap has quarantined new spam since the last report. Check with your administrator to verify that SQR frequency has not been changed.

SQRs are sometimes caught by client-side spam filters, such as a Junk box.

Users can see a date and time stamp of their last SQR by logging into the Web Console, under the User Details screen.

Admins can access this in the Console by clicking on Account Management > Users > email address of the user in question.

Admins can also send SQRs on demand by clicking “Deliver Spam Report” from the users’ Detail page.
