The Barracuda Email Security Service is a cloud-based email security service that protects both inbound and outbound email against the latest spam, viruses, worms, phishing and denial of service attacks. The web interface of the Barracuda Email Security Service provides you with a web-based email page called the Message Log, which lets you manage your quarantined messages. You can also set some account preferences, depending on what has been enabled for your account by the administrator.

The Barracuda Email Security Service can notify you on a regular interval when you have quarantined messages. The quarantine notification interval (daily, weekly, etc.) is set by you.

How to configure quarantine notification

Point your web browser to https://ess.barracudanetworks.com, and use your Windows username and password to log into Barracuda.

You can tell the Barracuda Email Security Service to notify you by email when you have quarantined messages. From the SETTINGS > Quarantine Notifications page, select Never, Daily, Weekly, or Custom from the drop-down. To create a custom schedule, select Custom, then select the time of day for delivery of quarantine notification emails for any or all days of the week. Uncheck a day to not send any quarantine notifications for that day. The Quarantine Notification page looks like this:
