You will not be able to modify the Global Outbound Policy (Virus & Spam or Phish). This is a default rule in TMEMS to avoid outbound spam & virus, and prevent TMEMS outbound servers from being blacklisted by third-party Real-time Blackhole Lists (RBLs). The policies cannot be edited and they are activated by default for all domains.
