The probability is stored in the email as the SPAM score. The SPAM score starts at 0 and increases as the tests return a positive. By default, any email with a SPAM score over 5 is deleted and a message is sent to the sender that the message was blocked. Then, the user decides what to do to the lower SPAM scored email. Instructions for setting up the SPAM Filtering is here. Quota The current email quota for each user is 100MB. Virus Scanning All email attachments are scanned for viruses. If a virus is found, then the email attachment will be replaced with a virus notice. The virus email will have the subject modified to look like this example "{VIRUS?} Subject". | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
