User Guide

40 Kaspersky Anti-Spam 2.0 Enterprise Edition / ISP Edition
We recommend starting with the profiles available, then modifying them or
creating new ones, if necessary, using existing profiles as patterns.
For example, you can set message processing conditions that will be applied to
all users by default (see para 4.4.2.1, page 40), or define them for individual
users (see 4.4.2.2, page 42). There is a provision for adjusting the severity level
of mail traffic filtering (see 4.4.2.3, page 43).
You can maintain your own data that help in spam identification:
• Black and white e-mail lists;
• Black and white IP address lists;
• Database of sample spam messages.
In addition you can change the RBL services lists to which the common profile
rules refer (see para 4.4.1.2, page 36).
We recommend adding new services to the RBL services lists with
extreme care as new additions may result in a number of false
triggering.
For more details on the list editing see para 5.2.5, page 73. For information on
updating of the sample spam messages database see para 5.2.6, page 82.
4.4.2.1. Selecting default reaction to spam
The preinstalled set of filter profiles implies several alternative patterns of
identified message processing (see para 4.4, page 35), i.e.:
• Marking in the Subject header (enabled by default after the filter
installation);
• Marking in the
Keywords header;
• Archiving spam;
• Rejection of some spam types and archiving of other spam messages;
• No filtering.
Personal filter profiles included in the preinstalled set are responsible for
processing of the messages identified as spam (or possible spam). They can be
selected and configured on the
personal tab of WebConfigurator (see para 5.2.2,
page 52).
For each e-mail processed the first active profile will work, where:
• the recipient specified in the
