Issue
- Add a domain name, email address or IP address to the Approved lists (whitelist) to prevent the ESET Mail Security spam filter from scanning those communications
- Add a domain name, email address, IP address or country to the Blocked lists (blacklist) to have ESET Mail Security mark all communications from those communications as spam
