Mimecast is our
email protection, filter and archive system which operates BEFORE items reach
your CEG Outlook inbox and acts as our first line of defense against spam and
malicious emails. It also provides a much greater range of protection that is
beyond the scope of this quick tutorial.
To access Mimecast
from your Outlook software, follow the instructions below.
In Outlook on the
menu bar - click the Mimecast item.

There are various
options such as Online Inbox , On Hold Messages and Block Senders.
![]()
Online Inbox shows
ALL your emails ever received (although it defaults to just one year) and they
cannot be deleted.
On Hold Messages
shows emails that have been detected as spam and they won't be released into
your Outlook inbox unless released from here.
Block senders lets
you block entire domains or individual email addresses from ever contacting
you.
Please be wary of
the domain block, if you decided to block person@gmail.com
and chose domain - you will never receive any emails from a gmail address again
unless it is removed from the block list.
