    Having the ability to flag email as Phishing prior to opening or previewing would reduce potential risk of user opening an a real phish email.

    Hello Brandon, 

    I can see your point on wanting to report obvious phishing attacks before they are opened. Currently, we don't consider opening a phishing email necessarily a point of failure as the indicators of the email being malicious are usually in the content of the email.

    We believe it is important for the user to be able to recognize the red flags from the content so that they can be better inoculated. 

    With that being said I don't have any issue submitting this item for review to our development team on your behalf! 

    Thank you for contributing to the community board!

    PAB version 3.0 that is pushed via the Exchange portal does not allow users to right click on an email to submit as a phish without first opening it. But if you download and install PAB version 1.4.85 on the users PC, it gets added to the right click menu on Outlook and the user is able to submit phish emails without having to first open them. 

    This would mean that we have to find a way to install the PAB version 1.4.85 on all out users PC to have that functionality?

    Hi Sathy,

    Thank you for reaching out! The right-click functionality described in this post currently doesn't exist for any version of the PAB. I've gone ahead and added you as a +1 to the feature request to add this functionality.

    Thank you for your contribution to this post!
