WHAT IS UP WITH ALL THIS SPAM?  Is the filter working?  Can’t you block these SPAM messages?  I put the SPAM in my junk mail but they still keep filling my Inbox!  What can we do about it? Monroe-Woodbury’s Maia Mailguard is our SPAM/VIRUS gateway. The filter, put into action November 8, 2006 has caught 2,258,148 SPAM Messages (Yes, over 2 Million!) It has caught and quarantined 71966 VIRUSES (282.6 / per day!) Putting SPAM in your Junk Mail Folder does not work. The junk folder reads the exact address of the e-mail address. Spammers NEVER use the same addresses, the FROM: Field may contain any name, even MW address! (To try to trick you into opening the message). What we can do is once a week or more, go to our SPAM filter and TEACH the filter what is SPAM and what is not. It will attempt to LEARN your choices and CATCH SPAM or ALLOW Mail to go to your Inbox that you choose. This also gives you a tool to check why you have not received an e-mail that someone sent. Did it get caught in the SPAM filter? Does it have a Virus and was caught in the VIRUS Filter? WHAT CAN I DO ABOUT IT? Login to MW Maia Mailguard (If you can not login, let the Computer Department know, and we will set your account to your citrix login.)
