Mimecast Email Portal
https://community.mimecast.com/s/article/email-security-cloud-gateway-digest-email
Our district is using the Mimecast Email Gateway for email security. You may get a daily or weekly digest telling you about your email queue.
You can use the links in the digest to manage any held mail, and if it doesn't look suspicious, you can release it.
Accessing the portal is done using Google login with your PPS account.
Warning: As you can regulate the messages you accept into your inbox, it is crucial for you to understand the significance of each action before deciding what action to apply to each message.
