SPAM Bouncer
SPAM Bouncer operates on our mail server cluster to provide
the ultimate protection against unwanted and disruptive unsolicited email,
commonly referred to as spam. SPAM Bouncer can be fully configured to your
own unique preferences, allowing full automation and real time control over
what you choose to allow into your mailbox, in turn increasing productivity
and decreasing time wasted on filtering unwanted junk mail.
Delivery
You can specify how you wish SPAM Bouncer to deal with messages identified
as spam by selecting the appropriate radio button. 'Send to POP3 mailbox'
will route all intercepted spam to the POP3 mailbox of your choice. 'Delete
Mail' will automatically delete the email when it reaches our mail servers.
'Bounce Mail' will bounce the spam back to the original sender with a
delivery failure message detailing why the mail was rejected. 'Deliver
Mail' will route the mail to its original destination, you can then use
filtering rules in your email program to deal with messages identified
as spam based on headers or subject.
The subject of messages identified as spam can be modified by checking
the 'Subject' box and entering the desired text in the space provided.
Click the 'Save Settings' button to save any changes.
Tolerance
You may adjust the 'Tolerance' level to control how strictly SPAM Bouncer
will treat email sent to your Inbox. The less tolerant you set SPAM Bouncer,
the larger the amount of spam mail intercepted, but the greater the risk
of incorrectly identifying legitimate email as spam. A moderate setting
is appropriate for the majority of users. Click the 'Save Settings' button
to implement any changes.
Languages
Specify the languages in which you expect to receive email from the list
box by holding the CTRL key and clicking your mouse button on your desired
languages. SPAM Bouncer will consider messages written in languages not
selected to have a high probability of being spam. Click the 'Save Settings'
button to implement these changes.
Allow List
An 'Allow List' can be quickly and easily set up. An allow list defines
email addresses or domain names from which you will always allow mail
to be delivered normally, regardless of content. Should SPAM Bouncer incorrectly
reject a legitimate email from a particular address or domain name, you
should list it here. To add a domain or email address to your Allow List,
enter it into the space provided and click the 'Add' button. The current
entries on your Allow List are displayed, to remove any entry simply click
it's corresponding 'Remove' link.
Block List
A block list defines email addresses or domain names from which you wish
to automatically reject email, regardless of content. Should SPAM Bouncer
fail to intercept a spam email from a particular address or domain name,
you may wish to list it here. To add a domain or email address to your
Block List, enter it into the space provided and click the 'Add' button.
The current entries on your Block List are displayed, to remove any entry
simply click it's corresponding 'Remove' link.
Headers
SPAM Bouncer adds a header 'X-Spam-Flag' to every message it scans, the
value of this header will be 'YES' or 'NO' indicating whether or not the
message has been identified as spam. You can use this header in conjunction
with the 'Send to POP3 mailbox' or 'Deliver Mail' deliver options and
the filtering facilities in your email program to handle spam messages
as you desire.
