 ====== IPG Mail Server Antispam ======
-The IPG mail server integrate a very strong and powerful Antispam engine. This filter, using Bayesian logica and others method of filtering, can stop approx. the 98% of the spam that all of us receive every day. Currently we maintain the filter in **learning** state so all the messages //even the spam messages// are delivered to the final mailbox, without blocking anything. Of course we want to activate the filter so all the spam is blocked, but because the filter is very strong, can happens that in some case it record as spam even Legitimate email messages. To prevent this, you have to teach the filter about the nature of the mail you received.

 The interaction with the Antispam filter is quite simple: every time you receive a message that the filter didn't correctly identify you have to forward the same message back to the filter.
 This way the filter can **learn** directly from you what is spam and what is not.
 <note warning>
-If you want to receive all the messages without filtering (you are a spam lover technically speaking), inform the System Administrator, it can remove the filter for your mail address. This modify is done only for really good reason.

 In our configuration, the spam filter add just a string to the header of the message that normally isn't displayed, so in reality you can't see directly if the message is spam or not.
 For this reason every mail that is recognized as spam will be delivered to the **SPAM** folder already present in your mailbox. **You have to look in the folder SPAM if you received spam mail**.
+<note warning>
+This redirection is not activated by default. If you want to activate it you have to call the System Administrator.
