Working with filtered e-mail

At times, some spam may not be detected. When this happens,
you can report spam to McAfee, where it is analyzed to create
filter updates.
If you are using a Webmail account, you can copy, delete, and
obtain more information about your filtered e-mail messages.
This is useful when you are not sure whether a legitimate
message was filtered, or if you want to know when the message
was filtered.
