1. Launch the GFI MailEssentials Switchboard from Start > Programs > GFI MailEssentials > Switchboard and select Troubleshooting  tab.

The GFI MailEssentials Switchboard: Troubleshooting

2. Click Enable or Disabled to enable or disable email processing

NOTE

Some services are temporarily stopped while performing this operation. This may affect mail flow and/or email scanning.
