Adding Trusted Email Forwarders
On the spamBlocker Settings
Common
tab, you can enter one or more host names or domain names
of email servers that you trust to forward email to your email server. This can improve spam scoring
accuracy. With this feature, spamBlocker looks in the message headers of email for the IP address of the
originating email client, not the Trusted Mail Forwarder, when email comes from a server on this list.
Configuring Rules For Your Email Reader
To use the
Tag
action in spamBlocker, it is best to configure your email reader to sort messages. Most
email readers, such as Outlook, Thunderbird, and Mac Mail, allow you to set rules that automatically
send email messages with tags to a subfolder. Some email readers also let you create a rule to automat-
ically delete the message. Because you can use a different tag for each spamBlocker category, you can
set a different rule for each category. For example, you can set one rule to move any email message
with the ***BULK*** tag in the subject line to a Bulk subfolder in your inbox. You can set another rule
that deletes any email message with the ***SPAM*** tag in the subject line.
The procedure below gives instructions on how to configure the Microsoft Outlook email client. For
information about how to use this procedure on other types of email clients, look at the user documen-
tation for those products.
Sending spam or bulk email to special folders in Outlook
This procedure shows you the steps to create rules for bulk and suspect email in Microsoft Outlook.
You can have email with a “spam” or “bulk” tag delivered directly to special folders in Outlook. When
you create these folders, you keep possible spam email out of your usual Outlook folders, but you can
get access to the email if it becomes necessary.
