# Quarantine Policies

This page lists the quarantine policies in the selected tenant and shows the tenant's global quarantine notification settings above the table. A quarantine policy controls what end users are allowed to do with their own quarantined messages, and it is referenced from the tenant's anti-spam, anti-phishing, anti-malware, and Safe Attachments policies.

## Global Quarantine Settings

The card above the table shows the settings that govern the quarantine notification message itself. These apply to the whole organisation rather than to any one policy. The refresh icon on the card reloads them without reloading the table.

| Custom Sender Address  | The address notifications are sent from, or `None` where the Microsoft default is used.                                                                                                                |
| Custom Language        | The languages configured for custom notification text. Select it to open the Custom Language Settings flyout, which lists the sender display name, subject, and disclaimer held against each language. |

Where the settings cannot be read for the selected tenant, every item shows `n/a`.

Microsoft supplies a set of built-in policies alongside any you create yourself. The built-in ones cannot be changed or removed, and the **Custom Policies** and **Built-in Policies** presets tell the two apart.

**More Info** opens a flyout with **Id**, **Name**, the full end-user permissions, **Guid**, **Builtin**, **When Created**, and **When Changed**.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.cipp.app/user-documentation/email/spamfilter/list-quarantine-policies.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
