Activate the glide.email.email_with_no_target_visible_to_all
property to restrict user access to emails, unless they were the one who sent the email or have
an admin role.
Unauthorized users are able to access emails in the sys_email_list table that are missing a target record. Instead of enforcing ACLs on email entries, this property restricts access only to the email sender and users with the admin role.  
Hinweis:  
Emails sent to and received by the instance appear in the sys_email_list table. However, only received emails that were marked with an Error and Ignored state should have an empty target table.

| Configure | [Access control](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/xAmazkRh5FKyeb7q4TQGWw "The access control category audits the process of protecting resources from unauthorized access through granting and denying requests based on a permission model. This includes ensuring an entity accessing a resource holds valid credentials to do so, creating and protecting a well-defined set of roles or permissions and ensuring role or permission controls are protected from replay and tampering.") |
| Purpose | To block email client from showing emails when user doesn't authorize access. |
| Recommended value | true |
| Default value | true |
| Security risk rating | 6.5 |
| Functional impact | Users are no longer able to see emails where target table is empty unless they are an admin or were the sender of the email. |
