Scan OLE objects

If this option is selected, the Antivirus protection will scan OLE (Object linking and embedding) objects/documents.

Max file size limit

Specify a limit for files that are processed by ESET Mail Security. Default value 0 means no limit; all files are processed regardless of their size.

Databases excluded from scan

Select the databases that will be completely excluded from Antivirus and antispyware scanning and filtering by user-defined rules. Be careful about the databases you exclude because exclusions represent a potential security risk.
