Email Spam Filter

Spam Filter - We have a filter in place to scan messages inbound from the Internet. This filter allows users to manage their mailbox settings online and by default sends a weekly quarantine report of blocked items. Via the website you can change how often you receive reports, set email addresses to always allow, always block, and view and release your quarantined items.

Our spam filter is set to a high intercept level, so check your report carefully. The software forbid certain attachments deemed security risks. This includes .exe, .com, .bat, .pif, and others. Files that are forbidden or contain viruses may not be released. You can now block messages based upon language as well. The complete user manual may be found here.

Remember to practice safe browsing. This ugly web page has some helpful tips.
