What is the primary function of an Auto Allow entry?

The primary function of an Auto Allow entry is to bypass certain email security policies for specific senders or domains. When a user or administrator creates an Auto Allow entry in the Mimecast system, it ensures that emails from designated sources are automatically permitted through the email security measures in place. This can be particularly useful for trusted partners or frequently used email addresses that might otherwise be incorrectly flagged as spam or malicious by the system.

By utilizing Auto Allow entries, organizations can streamline their email communications with trusted sources, ensuring that important emails are consistently delivered without being impacted by filtering rules or security protocols that might otherwise impede their receipt. This functionality enhances the user experience while maintaining security measures for other email traffic.
