In the Anti-Spam settings dialog you can check/uncheck the Turn on Anti-Spam protection checkbox to
allow/prohibit the anti-spam scanning of email communication. This option is on by default, and as always, it
is recommended that you keep this configuration unless you have a real reason to change it.
Next, 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 score is greater than setting by either typing the
value or by moving the slider left or right (the range of values is limited to 50-90).
Generally we recommended setting the threshold between 50-90, or if you are really unsure, to 90. Here is a
general review of the scoring threshold:
Value 80-90 - email messages likely to be spam will be filtered out. Some non-spam messages may
be incorrectly filtered as well.
Value 60-79 - considered as a quite aggressive configuration. Email messages that are possibly
spam will be filtered out. Non-spam messages are likely to be caught as well.
Value 50-59 - very aggressive configuration. Non-spam email messages are as likely to be caught as
real spam messages. This threshold range is not recommended for normal use.
In the Anti-Spam settings dialog you can further define how the detected spam email messages should be
treated:
Move message to the junk folder (Microsoft Outlook plugin only) - mark this checkbox to specify
that each detected spam message should be automatically moved to the specific junk folder within
your MS Outlook email client. At the moment, the feature is not supported in other mail clients.
