Marking External Mails
To increase the visibility of external mails, we ask everyone to set up a filter in the Web Mailer.
This will allow each user to better identify external mails and hopefully prevent one or two phishing attempts.
The filter will mark any incoming mail coming from outside our domain with a 'flag'.
