Spam Quarantined Email

Microsoft 365 email has filters to protect users from spam and malicious emails like phishing scams.

Messages caught by the filters are placed in quarantine for Fairleigh Dickinson University and its users’ protection. Users will receive a Spam Notification message once a day, notifying them of any messages placed in quarantine. Any legitimate mail caught by mistake can be released directly from this message or from the quarantine portal.

Warning Warning

Mail left in quarantine will automatically be deleted after 15 days.

Handling Quarantined Email

Legitimate messages placed in quarantine may be released into your inbox in one of two ways:
