Spam Control Tools
SpamAssassin is the premier spam control project in use today. An Open Source project hosted by Apache, and used worldwide to control the billions of spam emails launched each day. The project is located here.
Batchnet offers two ways to implement SpamAssassin to control email.
Batchnet Email Hosting Account
The Hosting accounts offered by Batchnet include email accounts and an instance of SpamAssassin on the server. Configuring this account will score each email received, and mark those exceeding your threshold score for spam. Most popular email accounts (Thunderbird, Outlook, Outlook Express) support simple Subject Line Filtering that will automatically remove everything marked as SPAM.
EnyoMark Spam Detection Appliance
EnyoMark is designed for businesses with needs beyond the Hosting account, such as those with an Exchange Server, or other local Mail Server. EnyoMark is a network appliance for the detection and identification of spam emails, marking each SPAM before it is passed to the local email server. Since EnyoMark is a separate appliance, it works with all mail servers that are capable of filtering mail based on Subject Line identification. On the Email Server, the marked SPAM can be sent directly to the "junk" folder and then deleted after a set time.
- EnyoMark is available as a purchased unit or a managed service.
- EnyoMark improves productivity by removing spam BEFORE the inbox.
- EnyoMark improves network security and reliability by removing most phishing, virus, and malware emails before someone can click on them.
