7.3. Anti-Spam Settings
In the Anti-Spam basic settings dialog you can check the Turn on Anti-Spam protection
checkbox to allow/forbid the anti-spam scanning of e-mail communication.
In this dialog you can also select more or less aggressive scoring measures. The Anti-Spam filter
assigns each message a score (i.e. how similar the message content is to SPAM) based on several
dynamic scanning techniques. You can adjust the Mark message as spam if the score is greater
or equal to setting by either typing the value (50 to 90) or by moving the slider left or right.
Here is a general review of the scoring threshold:
Value 90 - Most incoming e-mail messages will be delivered normally (without being marked
as spam). The most easily identified spam will be filtered out, but a significant amount of
spam may still be allowed through.
Value 80-89 - E-mail messages likely to be spam will be filtered out. Some non-spam
messages may be incorrectly filtered as well.
