What is SPAM Filtering?
ISOC.NET has implemented a powerful filtering engine on its mail server that uses the proposed standard Sieve filtering Language. Sieve is a language that can be used to create filters for electronic mail. The language is powerful enough to be useful, but limited in power in order to allow for a safe server-side filtering system. Filters or Scripts created with the language can examine the body of the message searching for key phases or a group of phrases and then carry out specific instructions depending one what is found.
Spam refers to unsolicited bulk electronic messages. If you use email or other types of online communications, there is a good chance that you receive spam. Apart from being annoying, spam can potentially be dangerous to your computer and to your privacy. Most email programs have built-in filters that can help you separate spam from regular email.
