Spam and Virus removal software. Every Web hosting

and user definable rules-based Spam filtering).
The use of these various systems is designed to help
you eliminate and remove up-to 98% of junk mail and
viruses from your inbox.
Anti Virus Scanning
Email Virus' can cause any business extensive downtime
and money. For this reason we scan all inbound and outbound
messages for virus' using the power and efficiency of
the Vexira scanning engine and hourly
virus definition updates to assure that even when a
newly found virus is discovered you're covered.
Spam Filtering
Our Spam Filter solution works to minimize
the damage spam does to your business. The spam filter
system scans every email sent to your account verifying
the legitimacy of the email and determining the likelihood
of the email containing spam. The system is deployed
and administered on the mail server and managed by us
ensuring there is no administrative overhead for your
organization. The anti spam application works to identify
spam emails before they reach your email box. Emails
are scanned using SpamAssassin™ a server based
mail filtering system. Furthermore, an additional layer
of Spam protection can be utilized
from enabling the custom spam filters available from
your WebMail options panel. This multi-pronged approach
ensures maximum efficiency in reducing spam to your
email box and can reduce spam levels by up-to 98%. Depending
on your specific requirements the spam filter can manage
email identified as spam in one of two ways:
1. Automatic Deletion
Once a particular email has been identified as spam
it can automatically be deleted ensuring your staff
are never inconvenienced by spam in the workplace. The
emails are erased by the mail server and are never delivered
to the end user dramatically reducing the presence of
spam in your mail box.
2. Automatic Tagging and
Filtering
The filtering application can be set to automatically
tag suspected spam emails, once tagged the email will
be delivered to the end user where the Email Program
(such as Microsoft Outlook or Outlook Express) will
identify the tag and move the email to your junk folder.
In this way emails are never lost but are simply relocated
to the users junk folder. The user is then able to browse
through the folder on a daily or weekly basis retrieving
any emails that maybe of interest or use.
Benefits of Spam Filter
• Fully managed spam prevention system, minimizing
administrative overhead for your organization,
• Constant checks for consistent spammers against
an independent database of identified spammers,
• Scans email at the mail server, therefore emails
identified as spam need never reach your desktop,
• Real-time detection and identification of suspected
emails,
• The spam-identification tactics used include:
header analysis: spammers use a number of tricks to
mask their identities, fool you into thinking they've
sent a valid mail, or fool you into thinking you must
have subscribed at some stage. Our Spam filters tries
to spot these.
• Text analysis: again, spam mails often have
a characteristic style (to put it politely), and some
characteristic disclaimers and CYA text. Our Spam filters
can spot these, too.
• Blacklists: SpamAssassin™ supports many
useful existing blacklists, such as mail-abuse.org,
ordb.org or others.
• Razor: Vipul's
Razor is a collaborative spam-tracking database,
which works by taking a signature of spam messages. |
