Managing Email in History
Go to History and select an email in the list to view further information for that email, including message view and source. A slide out panel appears with the Details tab displayed by default.
You can move between emails in the list, and as you select each one, the details are repopulated with the new data. Select the full screen icon beside the Email Protection ID at the top if you want a full screen view.
If you view an email that is in quarantine, you can select the Actions menu to delete, forward, release, or allow the email directly from History. See further details in the Actions table below.

Actions
Go to the Actions dropdown menu, and select one of the four buttons - Delete, Forward, Release, or Allow - to perform an action on the email. See further information on each action below.
Possibly need note here to explain how to delete in the History section.
| Action | Description |
| Delete | Select Delete to delete the email you are viewing. Deleting a message from quarantine tells Email Protection this email is spam and so this type of message is more likely to be blocked in the future. Note: If a message is deleted from quarantine that message will not appear in the associated users’ quarantine, or in their quarantine report. |
| Forward | Select Forward to enter an email address and forward an email. Once forwarded, the email is not removed from quarantine. |
| Release | Occasionally, an email in quarantine may have been incorrectly identified as spam. This is known as a ‘false positive’. Select Release to release an email from quarantine and automatically forward the email to the recipient. |
| Allow | Select Allow to add the email address of an email in quarantine to your Allow List. The email address is added to your allow list and the email is released from quarantine and delivered to the recipient. All future emails from this sender will bypass the SpamTitan anti-spam engine, but are still scanned for viruses and banned attachments. |
