SPAM Recovery Instructions


 
The newest version of antivirus/antispam that we have installed on our servers provides additional functionality above and beyond our prior versions.  SPAM will continue to be filtered, but users can now review all of their filtered email and have any emails incorrectly marked as spam to be retrieved.  Outgoing mail is not, however, filtered in any way.
 
How it Works...
When an email is received into the system, it is compared to a complex filter list.  If the email address matches a known spam email address, the email is moved to a special folder called 'spam'.  If the email is suspected to be spam, but the software is unsure, the software will append the word "SPAM?:" to the beginning of the subject line and  deliver the email normally to your inbox.

NOTE: The server will hold all email marked as SPAM in the respective folder for each user for 15 days!  ALL email in the SPAM folder older than 15 days WILL BE DELETED!  It is YOUR responsibility to check this folder if you feel that you may have email that was improperly marked as SPAM.

 
How to Access Your SPAM Messages...
 

1. Pull up a web browser and type in your domain names mail server address.

Example:  If your domain name is called www.compdevsys.com
You would type in http://mail.compdevsys.com

2. When the login screen appears, type in your login name and password

Example:  Your name is James Smith
You would type in james.smith as your login name

3. On the left side of the window, you will see a new folder called 'spam'.  It will display in blue parentheses how many unread spam messages you have on the server. Select this folder by left-clicking on the folder name.

4. Review the emails as necessary to determine if any are legitimate.  Use the icons to go through the list of pages.

5. When you find an email that is not SPAM, select the email and then select the Move/Copy Icon.  A small folder list window will appear.  Select the Inbox from the list, and select the move button.  The email will now be in your inbox, and will be downloaded the next time you check your email from your computer.
