CHAPTER 8 241
Administering F-Secure Spam Control
8.1

Introduction

When F-Secure Spam Control is enabled, incoming messages that are
considered spam are marked automatically by adding an X-header with
the spam flag or predefined text in the message header. The end users
can then create filtering rules that direct the messages marked with the
spam flag header into a junk mail folder.
F-Secure Spam Control spam definition databases can be updated with
F-Secure Automatic Update Agent. In order to update the spam definition
databases F-Secure Automatic Update Agent must be installed on the
same computer as F-Secure Spam Control. F-Secure Policy Manager is
not used for updating the spam definition databases. F-Secure's spam
definition updates are digitally signed for maximum security, and you can
use only these updates for updating the F-Secure Spam Control spam
definition databases.
