-{{page>​services:​e-mail_service:​e-mail_filters_spam_condivisa}}+
  
 +Each incoming mail is scanned by our anti-spam filter, that assigns it a SPAM-SCORE VALUE. ​
 +\\
 +If an e-mail is suspect, the anti-spam program tags it as ** //[Maybe SPAM]// ** and assigns to it a SPAM-SCORE VALUE starting from 3.5.\\
 +Depending on your **Spam level** set using **horde** or **squirrel** (default **5**), the incoming mails will be delivered into the **INBOX** or **INBOX_spam** folder.\\
 +For example using default settings:
 +  * an e-mail with value 5 (and tagged as //[Maybe SPAM]// because its value is > of 3.4), will be delivered into the //​INBOX_spam//​ folder;
 +  * an e-mail with value 4 will be delivered into the INBOX folder, but tagged as [Maybe SPAM] because its value is > of 3.4;
 +  * an e-mail with value 3, will be delivered into the //INBOX// folder.\\
 +If you set 1 as your //Spam level// a lot of your incoming mails will be delivered into the //​INBOX_spam//​ folder (LICIT E-MAILS TOO!!!!). \\
 +If you set 9 as your //Spam level// a lot of your incoming mail will be delivered into the //INBOX// folder (SPAM MAILS TOO).\\
 +So if you wish to change your spam level, **choose carefully.**
 +----
  
 +===== Clean the INBOX_spam folder =====
  
 +:!: You have to check and empty the content of the INBOX_spam folder from time to time. 
 +\\
 +----
 +
 +**It is NOT possible to set the same parameters on horde and on squirrel.**\\
 +There are some differences,​ so choose carefully and remember what you have just read before this section.!!\\
