In particular, creating a new rule for blocking an IP, what I do most in the…

Is there a way to see why an email is marked as dangerous?
Hi there, When an email is marked as "dangerous", is there a way to find out why? Also, is there any way to change the text and/or colour of the labels? On my phone the label takes up over half the title, and on Windows, the label is just annoying - a simple green tick would be better, e.g. like the one Bitdefender uses in…

2.2.26_Port Forwarding
It doesn't look like the Bitdefender VPN Premium version 27.3.0.7 (b) has a configuration to setup port forwarding. I guess my best bet would be to use Split-Tunneling and rely on configuring Port Forwarding with the ISP/Router or purchase another VPN subscription that supports native P2P port forwarding. Is that accurate…

Remove, or make optional, the Bitdefender "safe" label in Email Protection
For me, having the "Dangerous" label is all that is required. By definition, all other incoming emails are safe. I don't like getting every single email tagged with a useless label. It should at least be optional if users want the "safe" label. Yes, I know that some users might not understand that Email Protection only…
