Spam Assassin
What is SpamAssassin?
SpamAssassin is a mail filter which scans, and attempts to block, SPAM.
How Can I Turn It ON/Off?
Just cick on the Spam Assassin Icon
in our easy to use control panel
and click on enable
After you enable Spam Assassin
Each incoming e-mail is scanned for signs that it may be SPAM,
and if it is determined that it's likely to be SPAM, it is altered to clearly
reflect this, so that you -- the user -- can decide whether to delete or keep it.
Sometimes SpamAssassin will get a
"false positive",
resulting in tagged mails which are not actually SPAM at all.
Since spammers don't usually highlight the fact that
heir mail is unwanted, unsolicited ads, SpamAssassin has to try
to work it out -- and it's not always easy to do.
But I Don't Get Much SPAM!
Count yourself lucky, then!
The longer your email address stays valid, the more spam you will get.
It may not be a problem for you -- yet --
but others find it very frustrating.
Some recent research has indicated that several ISPs find their
incoming mail is between 30% and 50% spam, overall;
and quite a few old-timers who've used the same address for years,
get over 30 SPAMs a day.
If you don't get much SPAM, you probably
find SpamAssassin
more annoying than useful. In this case, do not enable it.
