What is the ESET Smart Security Antispam Module?
Antispam behaviour and user interaction The Antispam module detects unsolicited email in two ways. The first is through a basic set of rules which are designed to automatically filter unwanted email. These rules are by default included in the installation of the program. It is updated along with the virus signature database updates. Second, it is by means of the Bayesian filter. The Bayesian filter can be trained on a per-user basis. The user manually marks a sufficient number of incoming emails as legitimate messages or as spam. If you regularly receive spam from a certain address, you can add it to Blacklist. If you wish to designate that messages from a certain address will never be marked as spam, add the address to Whitelist. By default, the sender address in outgoing messages are automatically added to the Whitelist. The following section is intended to explain how to proceed when an unsolicited message arrives.
