SPAM and Virus Filtering

You don't have to live with SPAM anymore. I don't know anyone that enjoys receiving junk and virus laden emails but thankfully, there are more tools than ever before to combat SPAM. We offer both free and premium filtering services.

Free SPAM Filtering Tool

For most people, the free SPAM filtering solution that we offer is enough to eliminate most of the unwanted email that they receive.  For people that aren't inundated with large amounts of SPAM everyday, we offer a free SPAM filtering tool called SPAM Assassin.  It's a good solution but it does have a learning curve.  Free solutions are often times enough if you aren't getting hit too hard and don't mind the extra work of setting it up and maintaining it.  Spam

SPAM Assassin is one of the best free SPAM filtering services that is available. It doesn't stop SPAM from reaching you but what it does do is test each email you receive against a set of rules and if it determines it's SPAM. If it is, it adds ** SPAM ** to the subject of the email making it very easy to setup filters in your email client to put all of the SPAM in a folder but ultimately, you are still getting the SPAM.  You need to be mindful of where those emails are being filtered and delete them from time to time so you do not clog up your hard drive with junk email and potential viruses.

 

Premium SPAM Filtering Service

SPAM Assassin is okay but it can use a lot of server resources, slow things down and flag messages as SPAM that aren't. The rules it uses to determine if it's SPAM are good but not nearly as sophisticated as the rules that our premium service uses. Our premium SPAM and Virus filtering service is powered by MX Force, it analyzes and processes email before it ever get's to your email account using a wide variety of intelligent features. Spam

  • It traps anything it detects as SPAM or has a virus attached to it and quarantines it before it ever hits your account
  • You can view everything that it has quarantined in an easy to use web based interface to make sure it hasn't trapped legitimate email that you actually want to receive.
  • You can setup your own white lists and black lists
  • You can control how aggressive the system pursues and flags SPAM
  • It eliminates back scatter (back scatter is what you get when someone sends out SPAM and uses your email address as the From address
  • It operates as a backup system, if our mail servers are ever down, this service will queue all the email it receives while the mail server is down (we hope this is a feature you never have to take advantage of).

Not every business will need it but for us, we get way too much SPAM, the small amount we charge for this premium service is well worth the cost. It saves all of our people a lot of time and makes us more efficient. It allows us to get to support and sales requests quicker and more efficiently because our email accounts aren't filled with junk.
