| - | ====== SQUIRRELMAIL: how to modify E-MAIL SPAM FILTER ====== | ||
| - | ===== General information about SPAM ===== | ||
| - | |||
| - | Except for some 'old' users, all the incoming mail tagged as **[Maybe SPAM]** are automatically moved in your **INBOX_spam** folder (depending on your spam level value).\\ | ||
| - | The **<color purple>users who use POP</color>** can access to ** <color purple>INBOX_spam</color>** folder using webmail horde or squirrel **<color purple>ONLY</color>**. | ||

| - | ===== What is the spam level ?===== | ||
| - | |||
| - | 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.** | ||
