10.4.4.1. Acceptance Basic Settings

The Acceptance & Routing > Acceptance Basic Settings page allows system administrator to configure a set of basic acceptance policies at SMTP-connection level such as the maximum size for received emails, the allowed ESMTP commands, rules for local delivery and settings relative to the default SMTP banner.

Incoming connections established via SMTP and the message flow can be easily managed using the established policies. Moreover, they allow adding headers, changing addresses and other such actions.

Received messages



Check the Limit message size option and then use the up and down arrows in order to specify the maximum size for received messages. Then use the drop-down menu to select one of the available options: bytes, KB, MB or GB as necessary. Maximum value: 4096 MB.


Use the up and down arrows or fill in the text box in order to specify the maximum number of received headers. This will result in denying looping emails when the number of received headers exceeds the specified value (30 in this example). Available values range from 1 to 999.

Check the Limit no. of recipients per message option in order to specify the maximum number of recipients for received emails. Fill in the text box or use the corresponding up and down arrows in order to set the specific value, between 1 and 1000.

Allowed ESMTP Commands



Specify the allowed ESMTP Commands using the options in this section. Enable the StartTLS, 8-bit MIME, binary or pipelining extensions by simply checking their corresponding boxes.

Allow/Disallow local delivery



Set the parameters for local delivery using the options under Allow/Disallow local delivery. Here you can choose to enable/disable the local delivery and mandatory authentication. Check the box for the option that you want to activate.

Override default SMTP banner



Should you like to set a new SMTP banner check the box in front of the Override default SMTP banner option and then fill in the details of the new SMTP banner in the corresponding text box. The newly-added SMTP banner will automatically override the parameters of the default one.

When you are done configuring these parameters, remember to hit the Save Configuration button to preserve your changes.
