Taking Spam Off the Menu
Information Systems and Services unveiled a new spam filter for GW E-mail.
Users must logon to the GW Account Management Center at https://amc.gwu.edu
and select Anti-Spam Options from the left-hand menu to activate
this feature.
While the spam solution is relatively accurate, some messages could be
mistakenly marked, so users are encouraged to check their spam folders
on a regular basis. ISS cannot restore messages once they are deleted.
Messages in a spam folder count against a users mail quota, so if
the spam folder is not set to automatic, then messages must
be deleted from the spam folder on a regular basis to avoid going over
quota.
ISS advises that the new spam filter will help control spam, but no tool
will eliminate it 100 percent.
