350-701 Practice Question: A network administrator is configuring Cisco…
A network administrator is configuring Cisco Email Security Appliance (ESA) to prevent outgoing spam. The company wants to ensure that all outgoing emails contain a legal disclaimer and that any email with more than 20 recipients is delayed. Which two features should be combined?
⚠ Common exam trap
Cisco often tests the distinction between Mail Policies (which include Disclaimer and Destination Controls) and Message Filters (which are more granular but lack Destination Controls), leading candidates to incorrectly choose Message Filters for both requirements.

Why each option matters
Answer the question above first, then reveal the full breakdown to understand why each option is right or wrong.
Correct answer & explanation
✓
Outgoing mail policy with Disclaimer action and Destination Controls
The requirement to add a legal disclaimer is met by the Disclaimer action within an Outgoing Mail Policy, and the requirement to delay emails with more than 20 recipients is met by Destination Controls, which allow rate-limiting based on recipient count per message. These two features are specifically designed for outgoing email control and can be combined in a single mail policy.
Answer analysis
Option-by-option breakdown
For each option: why learners choose it and why it is or isn't the right answer here.
- ✓
Outgoing mail policy with Disclaimer action and Destination Controls
Why this is correct
The Disclaimer action adds the legal text, and Destination Controls can set recipient rate limits.
- ✗
Data Loss Prevention (DLP) and Outbreak Filters
Why it's wrong here
DLP is for data protection, not general disclaimers; Outbreak Filters are for spam.
- ✗
Antivirus scanning
Why it's wrong here
Antivirus does not add disclaimers or control recipient limits.
- ✗
Message Filters with content scanning
Why it's wrong here
Message filters can add headers but not practical for disclaimers.
