Claude 2044d9e0bc Add screenshots to the quarantine self-service article
Four screenshots of the actual PMG quarantine portal (login with
Request Quarantine Link, the request dialog, the held-mail list, and
the message-selected action toolbar), captured via a new
capture-quarantine.ts following the existing capture-*.ts pattern
(1440x900, deviceScaleFactor 2, viewport-only).

Redacted: real server hostname, the test mailbox address, and the
synthetic test-message content are all swapped for believable generic
customer-facing examples before each shot.

Restructured the article's two near-duplicate step lists ("Check your
quarantine" / "Get in without waiting") into one flow now that the
screenshots show it's genuinely a single screen, not two paths.

Claude 9f30b6a2b3 Add customer article on releasing/allowing quarantined email
Covers PMG's self-service quarantine portal (ticket-based sign-in,
release, personal whitelist) and the on-demand link request for
customers who need something released immediately rather than
waiting for the daily digest. Cross-linked from the existing
spam-filtering-changes migration notice.

title: Release or allow quarantined email
description: Get a message out of spam quarantine yourself, right away — no need to wait for the daily notice.
sidebar:
order: 3
---
import { Steps, Aside } from '@astrojs/starlight/components';
import Support from '~/content/partials/support-link.mdx';
Mail our filters flag as likely spam isn't delivered to your inbox — it's held in **quarantine** instead, where you can review it, release anything that's actually wanted, and always allow a sender in future. You don't have to wait for the daily notice to do this — see below.
## Check your quarantine
You'll normally get a **daily summary email** listing anything held for you — but the steps below work any time, not just after that email arrives. There's no separate password to remember; a link emailed to your own address is what signs you in.
<Steps>
1. Go to your mail filtering portal at `https://pmg01.cloud-hosting.io:8006/quarantine`. Choose **Request Quarantine Link**.

2. Enter the email address you want to check.
![The Request Quarantine Link dialog with an email address entered](~/assets/screenshots/email/email-quarantine-request.png)
3. Open the email that arrives — usually within moments — and follow the link inside it.
4. Review what's listed for your address.
![The Spam Quarantine list showing a held message with its sender, subject, and spam score](~/assets/screenshots/email/email-quarantine-list.png)
5. Select a message to see its content and the Whitelist / Blacklist / Deliver / Delete options, then choose **Deliver** to send it to your inbox as normal.

</Steps>
<Aside type="tip">
**Need something released right now?** This works any time of day, not just once daily — request a new link as often as you need one. No need to wait for the daily summary email.
</Aside>
## Always allow a sender
If mail from someone keeps getting caught and you know it's legitimate, allow their address (or their whole domain) from the same screen — choose **Whitelist** on a held message (shown in the screenshot above), or add the address directly from the quarantine portal. Future mail from that sender skips spam filtering for **your address specifically** — it doesn't change anything for the rest of your organization.
<Aside type="caution">
Only allow senders you actually recognize. Allowing an address skips spam checks for it entirely, so it's worth being deliberate rather than allowing everything that shows up.
</Aside>
## Common problems
**The sign-in link email hasn't arrived.** Check your spam folder — slightly ironic for a spam-filtering tool, but it happens. If it's still missing after a few minutes, contact us.
**I can't find a message I expected.** Quarantine holds mail for a limited time before it's cleared automatically, so check soon after being notified rather than weeks later. If it's genuinely missing, contact us and we can check on our end.
**A sender I allowed is still landing in quarantine.** Double check you allowed the exact address (or domain) it actually sends from — some services send from a different address than the one they display, especially automated notifications.

Each script carries its own `redact()` (text-node + input-value swaps) so fleet hostnames, IPs, and customer data become neutral placeholders while brand/demo domains stay visible. Copy the closest existing script when adding a new section — match its viewport (1440×900), `deviceScaleFactor: 2`, and **read-only** discipline (open modals and tick boxes for the shot, but never save/delete/submit).
