The goal is to test the employees, not the spam filtering or anti-phishing 
software.

One thing I forgot to mention is that our customer would request that the 
target company whitelist the sending IP addresses in their spam filter, if 
possible. This is in everyone’s best interest so that the employees see the 
message and have the opportunity to be tested.

Thank you,
