Mail
Processing
All mail sent through Digital Indigo's servers is processed
through special filters. These filters use complex analysis
to attempt the detection of junk e-mail, commonly called
UCE or spam.
Mail
that is detected as UCE is stamped with a flag that is not
visable to the user, but can be detected by your mail program.
Below are the steps necessary for Outlook to read this flag
and redirect suspected UCE.
IMPORTANT!
UCE filters are not perfect. Sometimes they will allow UCE
to pass through to your normal mailbox. Other times they
may move legitimate e-mails to the "Bulk Mail"
folder! Be sure to check your "Bulk Mail" directory
from time to time for legitimate e-mail.
