Configure a Spam Filter
• High likelihood if default settings are used. This email is normally quarantined for
review.
• Critical likelihood. This spam is blocked.
If you specified an additional Realtime Blackhole List (RBL) in the Spam window of the
assigned policy, the RBL can influence the spam score as well.
Note: Occasionally, some emails might be marked as spam when in fact they are
legitimate emails. For these "false positive" email messages, you can help Email
Protection "tune" the spam thresholds and rules by sending a forwarded copy of the email
with all content and attachments to falsepositive@mxlogic.com
