Message Security for Google Apps Administration Guide

Similarly, some Default User settings shouldn’t be changed for individual users, if
they define policies that should remain in effect across the org.

See below for guidelines on where, or where not, to control each setting.

Organization Settings

The following org-level settings can be made for any organization. Users added to
the org receive these settings, and changing a setting applies the change to the
whole org. Managing settings from this level makes it easy to apply changes
across an org, so use these settings to handle as much of your users’ service as
possible:

Administrator privileges

Who can manage a group of users and what

features can they manage (see “Create Administrators and Manage
Authorization Records” on page 92).

For pointers to details on applying these remaining settings, see “Manage
Organization Settings” on page 40.

Spam / Virus management How messages are disposed of, whether Blatant
Spam Blocking is enabled, and Virus Blocking settings.

Allowed / Blocked Senders that apply for all users in the org.

Attachment / Content Manager email polices

What file types or content is

specifically allowed or blocked.

Notifications

(Quarantine Summary, Welcome New User, Virus Notification,

Early Detection Quarantine, etc.) Which of these notifications are sent, and
when.

Time zone and language settings for configuring the Quarantine Summary
and Message Center.

Default User assignment The Default User that new users get filter settings
from.

User Access (to Message Center)

Whether users can access quarantined

spam and viruses in the Message Center, turn filters on/off, modify spam
filters or sender lists, or choose their language settings or other features.

Message Center Subject links

Whether users can view the content of a

quarantined message without forwarding it to their Inbox.

Outbound virus blocking

scanned for viruses.
