To troubleshoot this error, try these solutions:
1. Wait a few moments and see if anything changes. The error may be temporary.
2. Restart the computer and wait a few moments until Bitdefender is loaded. Open
Bitdefender to see if the error persists. Restarting the computer usually solves
the problem.
3. Check if you have any other security solution installed as they may disrupt the
normal operation of Bitdefender. If this is the case, we recommend you to remove
all of the other security solutions and then reinstall Bitdefender.

25.10. Antispam filter does not work properly
This article helps you troubleshoot the following problems concerning the Bitdefender
Antispam filtering operation:
● A number of legitimate e-mail messages are marked as [spam].
● Many spam messages are not marked accordingly by the antispam filter.
● The antispam filter does not detect any spam message.
25.10.1. Legitimate messages are marked as [spam]
Legitimate messages are marked as [spam] simply because they look like spam
to the Bitdefender antispam filter. You can normally solve this problem by adequately
configuring the Antispam filter.
Bitdefender automatically adds the receivers of your e-mail messages to a Friends
List. The e-mail messages received from the contacts in the Friends list are
considered to be legitimate. They are not verified by the antispam filter and, thus,
they are never marked as [spam].
The automatic configuration of the Friends list does not prevent the detection errors
that may occur in these situations:
● You receive a lot of solicited commercial mail as a result of subscribing on various
websites. In this case, the solution is to add the e-mail addresses from which you
receive such e-mail messages to the Friends list.
● A significant part of your legitimate mail is from people to whom you never
e-mailed before, such as customers, potential business partners and others. Other
solutions are required in this case.
