Whitelist IP Address
If you're using Barracuda's Email Security Gateway, you may need to allowlist HacWare to allow the simulated phishing test emails and training notifications through to your recipients.
Follow these instructions to allowlist our mail servers by IP address:
Log in to your Barracuda Email Security Gateway web interface.
Go to the BLOCK/ACCEPT > IP Filters page.
In the Allowed IP/Range section, enter HacWare’s mail server IP address: 149.72.222.44 in the IP/Network Address field.
In the Netmask field, type 255.255.255.255.
Optionally, add a note in the Comment field. For example, HacWare Simulated Phishing IP Address.
Click "Add" to allowlist the IP address.

Under the Intent section, add this hostname: urgentmailer.com
Make sure the Policy drop-down is set to Ignore
