You can enable or disable scanning of outgoing messages for spam and phishing content using the Anti-Spam module. If messages containing spam or phishing content are being sent from a specific address in your organization, this could mean that a specific computer in your organization is infected.

To determine whether or not a specific computer distributing spam or phishing content in your organization is infected, you can view the list of copies of outgoing messages in Backup, the list of events in the Windows Event Log, or the list of events in the Kaspersky Security Center Event Log.
