Administrator: Tweaking the spam filter settings

Access to this features requires you to log in to SmarterMail (http://mail.yourdomain.com) using the administrative account, refer to your setup email. If it is your first time using the service the web mail system will ask you to set a time zone before logging in, just select your local time zone and click the 'Save' link.

We recommend using the default filter settings for the best results. If you notice a particular domain or email is being blocked you can add it to a 'Trusted Senders' list so it will bypass the spam check.

Step 1: Click the 'Settings' icon in the left panel

Step 2: Expand the 'Domain Settings' node

Step 3: Click on 'Trusted Senders'

Step 4: Click 'New'

Step 5: Enter either an email address (e.g. user@domain.com) or a domain (e.g. domain.com), one per line

Step 6: Click the 'Save' button in the window

To change the filter settings or change how SmarterMail handles spam marked emails, perform the following steps.

Step 1: Click the 'Settings' icon in the left panel

Step 2: Expand the 'Domain Settings' node, expand 'Filtering, and click 'Spam Filtering'

Step 3: On the 'Options' tab check 'Override spam settings for this domain'

Step 4: Select the 'Actions' tab

Step 5: Set your action preferences and click the 'Save' link near the top
