Spam Filter

Spam Filter

Hello all, now for another wonderful topic: Spam Filter! That's right, we're actually covering something useful! Spam, the bane of the internet and all e-mail providers, can actually be limited! Only limited, Spam Filter's good, but it ain't a miracle worker. What it can do is block obvious spam e-mails and send them to a specific junk folder to be later removed by yourself.

Handy, huh? Best of all, its automatically set to a low setting, so you don't need to do anything yourself. Alternatively, you could increase this setting, but doing so might catch legitimate e-mails by mistake, so use at your own risk.

This is one of the few negatives of Spam Filter, you can block the actual e-mails you need by mistake. You will also have to clear your junk folder immediately; spam is like a bed smell, it lingers, so must be regularly cleared out, so while the Filter saves time, you still need to deal with the spam personally...

As such, this tool is to add to your e-mail protection, but should not be solely relied on. You must be vigilant!
