Spam Filter Services
 The spam filtering service offered through your Signature Hosting
Control Panel is SpamAssassin.
This program automatically delivers suspected spam e-mail messages to your Trash folder.
Important:
Custom Mail Filters and Spam Filter Service filters are independent of each other. However, if you have
enabled Custom Mail Filters and you also have subscribed to Spam Filter Services, mail is filtered
through Custom Mail Filters first and then through any active Spam Filter Service filters. If Custom
Mail Filters are disabled, active Spam Filter Service filters continue to filter mail until you clear
the Subscribe to check box.
Warning:
Mail filtering is not a perfect science. If you have set up any filters (including SpamAssassin) to
block spam or other unwanted e-mail messages, you must regularly check the Trash folder before
emptying it; you might find that some messages you wanted to receive have been filtered to the
Trash folder.
Note: For more information about spam filtering, see Basic Mail Filtering in this Help file.
