• Set access control
  The access control settings establish who can access the Mail Security databases. See “Restricting access to Mail Security databases”
  • To maintain security in your Lotus Domino environment, restrict access to the Mail Security databases to administrators by setting the Access Control List (ACL) for following databases:
    • Settings (sav.nsf)
    • Log (savlog.nsf)
    • Quarantine (savquar.nsf)
    • Definitions (savdefs.nsf), if used
  • The Quarantine database requires that you also assign roles to Quarantine database users. These roles restrict access to various Quarantine views and control who can release documents from the Quarantine. When you set access control for the Quarantine database, you must assign roles to those groups and users who use the Quarantine.
