5. From here, internal Symphony admins can configure several different items:

  • Message content.
  • File content.
  • Scope.

When message content is set to Log event, users can still directly send a message with content issues, but a record of this message will be logged in the audit. 

When message content is set to Warn user before sending, a warning will be displayed for messages sent with content issues, but the user can ignore this warning and continue to send the message (Figure 3):

When message content is set as Block user from sending, a warning will be displayed for messages sent with content issues. The user will not be able to send the message and must edit or remove the message (Figure 4):

Users can limit the filtering scan to the message only and specify the types of attached files to include.
