Plug-in Start
After implementation, if you still receive mail that you consider
spam that is not labeled as spam or quarantined, you can teach
the
Spam Firewall to consider it spam. This option is only available
through Exchange Outlook client, not web mail. To use it, you must
load the outlook plug-in listed at the bottom of the logon page.

Using the Spam Plug-in
Once installed, you can use the new red icon to classify a message
as spam and the green icon to classify the email as not spam. The
options are used to teach the Spam Firewall university wide.
| Classify as Not Spam |
Classifies the selected message as not spam.
Note: Some bulk commercial mail may be considered useful
by some users and spam by others. For this reason, classifying
such messages may not be very effective because users may
counteract each others’ classification. Instead of classifying
bulk commercial mail, it may be more effective to add it to
your whitelist (if you wish to receive such messages) or blacklist
(if you prefer not to receive them). |
| Classify as Spam |
Classifies the selected message as spam. |
