Spam Filtering

Service Description

Unwanted and unsolicited email, known as spam, is on average 78% of all email sent. To reduce the amount of spam coming into our inboxes, spam filters have been put in place on TEDU’s email system.

Most malware attacks today occur through a combination of spam and compromised web pages. Interacting with spam can put your personal information at risk as well as download a virus to your machine that may spread to other computers on the network.

Benefits and key features for this service are:

  • Spam Quarantine: Catches most spam and deletes it after 30 days; false positives can be "released" from quarantine upon request of user by mail admin.
  • Spam Quarantine Summary: Summary of mail identified as spam is sent to your inbox every day at 4:00 pm.
  • "Bad Senders" lists: Prevents spammers by adding the email address or domain to a list.
  • "Good Senders" lists: Ensures "good" email always get through
