The MailScanner front-end for cPanel servers. Quarantine, per-domain rules and outgoing spam monitoring — for the admin and for the customer.
Screens captured from the actual software, filled with sample data.
Many cPanel servers run MailScanner, but the old cPanel front-ends are no longer maintained. MailGuard is a new, independently written plugin for WHM and cPanel that takes over that role without using code from the old tools.
It detects the MailScanner, Exim and ClamAV setup automatically, shows diagnostics for queues and spool, and offers per-account and per-domain spam settings, whitelist/blacklist and a daily quarantine digest.
MailGuard does not rewrite the Exim configuration automatically. Per-domain rules are staged in a separate folder first and only activated once tested. Customers do not release quarantined mail themselves: they send a request that the admin approves or denies.
Index, search, safe viewing and a message trash.
Spam thresholds, actions and lists per domain.
Thresholds per account, domain, sender and script.
Signature status, updates and an EICAR self-test.
The customer asks, the admin approves.
Daily totals and most-targeted domains.
Not necessarily. If present, it is detected automatically. On a clean cPanel server there is an installer with SHA-256 verification.
MailGuard reads existing settings and prepares a migration plan without touching the old installation.
Yes, there is a cPanel page where they see their quarantine and adjust spam settings for their domains.
