Email Filtering > Anti-Spam
|
In 1999, the average consumer received 40 pieces of unsolicited commercial email. By 2005, it is estimated this total is likely to soar to 1600. America Online estimates that spam email already accounts for more than 30% of email to it's members.
Time, storage space, network bandwidth and ultimately money are all wasted by the shear volume of "junk" email being sent out by the hundreds of millions.
Blocking spam, however, is not an easy task. Addresses are easily forged and the message content is constantly changing. The Network Box uses a triple approach to solve this problem: up-to-date blacklists gathered from around the world, a heuristic engine to identify spam by looking at the entire message, not just the headers, and signatures for well known SPAM. Identified spam is marked, and the user can decide for themselves what they want done with it (deleted, moved, or just highlighted). This is our corporate view of how to deal with SPAM, to avoid unintentionally blocking regular emails which appear as SPAM. The final decision of what to do with that email should always be left to the user.
Network box Antispam engine can catch spam in 65 languages - unlike many competitors who catch only English based spam. The Network Box identifies 3 partiticular kinds of SPAM - porno, virus and hoax - and applies to these a different policy - it simply deletes them, for a higher level of protection of the user.
With the Network Box spam is clearly marked so that the user can decide what to do with it. It is also possible to redirect all the emails marked as SPAM to a dedicated mailbox, so that the users' mailboxes stay free of all the junk mail. Finally, it is possible to delete it before it is delivered, but Network Box does not recommend this solution because of the risk of false positives, which, though small, still exists.
Recently Network Box has also introduced the possibility to implement different policies for incoming and outgoing email, so that it is possible to scan SPAM and policy the incoming email but not the outgoing.
