As an administrator, you can increase Gmail's ability to identify suspicious content with enhanced pre-delivery message scanning. Typically, when Gmail identifies a possible phishing message, a warning is displayed and the message might be moved to spam.
With the Enhanced pre-delivery message scanning option, when Gmail detects suspicious content, message delivery is slightly delayed so that Gmail can do additional security checks on the message.
