You can import LDAP Data Interchange Format (LDIF) or comma-separated values (CSV) files into Trend Micro Email Security. This helps Trend Micro Email Security to better filter and process messages for valid email addresses. Messages to invalid email addresses will be rejected.
Trend Micro Email Security uses user directories to help prevent backscatter (or outscatter) spam and Directory Harvest Attacks (DHA). Importing user directories lets Trend Micro Email Security know legitimate email addresses and domains in your organization.
Trend Micro Email Security also provides a synchronization tool that enables you to synchronize your current groups, email accounts and email aliases from Open LDAP, Microsoft Active Directory, Microsoft AD Global Catalog, Office 365/Microsoft Entra ID and IBM Domino servers to the Trend Micro Email Security server.
