How does the spam filter work?

0
10

All messages are analyzed by the spam filter and assigned a spam score. The score ranges from 0 (not spam) to 100 (spam). The score that a message receives is used to classify it as “certain spam,” “possible spam” or “not spam.” The default option is to discard certain spam (messages with a spam score of 95-100) and deliver all other messages to the user’s inbox.
