What kind of spam and virus protection is available with Gaggle?
Gaggle uses a two-pronged approach to combat viruses, utilizing an enterprise-class commercial virus scanning solution as well as a customized system. Each message is scanned twice for viruses, once upon the upload to our servers, and then again prior to delivering the message to the end user. Gaggle’s virus definition libraries are updated hourly. Gaggle has many systems in place that are designed to help quickly detect new threats. Each day the Gaggle system rejects millions of spam messages. The technology analyzes all incoming mail to identify new spammers in real time. The final tool in the spam control system is that each user’s personal spam filter can be set to High, Medium, Low or Off. For an additional fee, Gaggle offers a premium virus and spam filtering solution. Added features include a daily digest of quarantined mail and the ability for users to adjust individual spam settings.
