Configuring spam detection

Anti-Spam allows you to customize how spam is detected. You
can filter messages more aggressively, specify what to look for in
a message, and look for specific character sets when analyzing
spam. You can also create personal filters to fine-tune which
messages Anti-Spam identifies as spam. For example, if
unsolicited e-mail that contains the word mortgage is not filtered,
you can add a filter that contains the word mortgage.
If you are having issues with your e-mail, you can disable spam
protection as part of your troubleshooting strategy.
