7. Anti-Spam Configuration
7.1. Anti-Spam Principles
Spam refers to unsolicited e-mail, mostly advertising a product or service that is mass mailed to a
huge number of e-mail addresses at a time, filling recipients mail boxes. Spam does not refer to
legitimate commercial e-mail for which consumers have given their consent. Spam is not only
annoying, but also can often be a source of scams, viruses or offensive content.
Anti-Spam checks all incoming e-mail messages and marks unwanted e-mails as SPAM. It uses
several analyzing methods to process each e-mail message, offering maximum possible protection
against unwanted e-mail messages.
7.2. Anti-Spam Interface
You will find the Anti-Spam server component's dialog in the Server Components section (left
menu). It contains a brief information about the functionality of the server component, information on
its current status (Anti-Spam Server for MS Exchange component is active.), and some statistics.
