Loganet Anti-Spam System

 

Loganet utilizes an anti-spam system that “learns” your e-mail characteristics and uniquely categorizes your incoming

e-mail messages as “SPAM” or “Innocent”.  

 

The Basics

 

All e-mail received will be displayed in your History.  If you look through your History, you'll see messages thought

to be SPAM , Innocent and Miss.

 

  •  Spam  is bad or unwanted e-mail and will be highlighted in  RED  in your history. 
  •  Innocent  is good e-mail and will be highlighted as  GREEN  in your history.
  • Miss is a message that was mis-classified but later changed by you.  The color around MISS tells you whether the system thinks the message is spam or innocent

 

The system works very well if you help it out by doing some occasional training.  The more training you

provide the system, the more accurate it will become at determining whether your e-mail is  Spam  or  Innocent  

 

You should never lose an e-mail message with this system.  Any message thought to be SPAM is placed in your

Quarantine folder for up to 15 days.  Each messages,  Spam  or  Innocent  is recorded in your History page and

retained for up to 15 days.  You should periodically manage the content of these pages.  You can log into the anti-spam system @ 

http://antispam.loganet.net/   Login with your full e-mail address and the password that was provided to you.

 

MAIN MENU

From the Main Menu, you have several options to manage your personal Anti-Spam settings and e-mail handling. 

 

1. Alerts – Can be used to highlight messages that might appear in

your quarantine that you think may be false positives.

For example: Entering “hotmail.com” would cause any message

to/from an address with “hotmail.com” or any message with

“hotmail.com” in the subject to be highlighted when viewing

the quarantine.  This will be a useful feature to help you identify important

messages as your quarantine fills with spam.  You do not need to use

this feature.  It's only for convenience.

 

a) You may add as many alerts as you like. 

b) Repeating an entry will not provide additional highlighting.

 

 

SPAM QUARANTINE

Quarantine.  Each message

displayed here is saved

in its original form on the

antispam server. 

 

3. Check the box next to

any message(s) that are

false positives (non-spam).

Note: The Rating column

indicates those messages

which are more likely to

be spam.

 

4. Click Deliver Checked to deliver checked message(s) to your mailbox.

 

5. Check the box next to any messages that are spam.

SPAM HISTORY

8. Click History.

Note: History contains

messages which passed

through the Anti-Spam system in

the past 15 days.

 

9. Review messages to see if any

are listed incorrectly as spam or

innocent and should be retrained.

Note: If you receive a message

in your e-mail application that was

not caught by the filter, please

“retrain” it to improve the filter’s

accuracy.

 

10. Click As Spam or As Innocent to

retrain any incorrect messages.

Note: The Retrain column can be

a little confusing. Think “Retrain as

Spam” or “Retrain as Innocent” when

determining whether or not the

message should be retrained. 

 

11.  You can also check the box

next to each message and Retrain

multiple messages at once, using the

"Retrain Checked" button.  Do not

retrain more than 25 messages at a time.
