Spamfilter Service: Function

Switch to antispameurope: No more Spam!

If you are the owner of a mail domain (  This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. ), we will – by your order – change the record in the Internet's address book that points your mail server (technically spoken: Change of the MX-Record in the Domain Name Service, DNS). Starting at this point, e-mails to your domain will be directed to antispameurope’s servers, which then check and forward clean mails to your own e-mail server. There is nothing more that you need to do.

Processing in serveral steps

Your E-Mails are being processed in three steps: Block, active analysis and concluding virus checks.

Block

The BLOCK function takes care of those messages that - with the highest probability possible - are obviously Spam. In these cases our systems break the connection with the sending server giving an error message and a reason. The vast majority of incoming mails (currently > 99%) is actually being blocked and not transmitted to quarantine, where it would be a burden for your employees. False positive rate at this point is extremely low at less than 1 per 1 billion mails.

Active Analysis

E-mails that have been accepted once and been identified as Spam subsequently are collected in quarantine. Users receive a daily message about recently added E-Mails in quarantine, formatted as a list. Users can order delivery of e-mails on that list to their inboxes by a simple mouse click.

Users can also access the quarantine area by using a Web Interface. Thanks to the BLOCK function, the quarantine area will stay compact. The user keeps the overview, is in control and can subsequently deliver messages that have been marked as Spam.

Viruses

Known Viruses: Viruses that are already known and detected are being completely blocked and not transmitted to the user.

Unknown Viruses: New and unknown viruses are being identified by the early warning system’s outbreak detection.
