During migration, some improper settings may be removed or modified. The settings in Trend Micro Email Security may be unexpected after migration, and the corresponding policies will be disabled temporarily. You need to fix these error settings and enable the policies manually after migration.
      • Warning: There are some minor issues about the settings in this state, and the settings will be automatically handled by Trend Micro Email Security. You only need to confirm these warning settings after migration.
      • Successful: Settings in this state will be migrated to Trend Micro Email Security without any issue.
