How Good Is Your Spam Filtering?

[Craig]

What exactly does HostPC use to capture and block spam from mail servers? Do you offer the ability to white list and black list my email addresses or by domains?

Thanks in advance,

Craig

Craig,

You can Block a specific e-mail address, block mail from an entire domain, block all e-mail containing a word, block all e-mail larger than xx Kb or enable adult filter: (blocks out common adult phrases, words, and addresses).

These are the filter options available to you once you sign up for an account. Feel free to ask any more questions you might have! :D

Is there any server side spam filtering such as Spam Assassin?

Thanks again,

Craig

Hello Craig,

No server side filtering. Just what is offered through the DA control panel which is what Matt described.
We had Spam Assassin installed and received numerous complaints from clients and took if off all servers

But you can install SpamAssassin yourself on your own account, right?

Sure.

Any details?
Reading the SA docs, it appears a shell account is required to install a personal copy of SA.
