====== SPAM & VIRUS ====== Both mail services of EPFL and IPG use updated filters for checking spam messages and to prevent the diffusion of mail viruses. The spam checking is not a perfect science and user have to control if the filter is working correctly. To do this you can follow [[spam:ipg|these]] instruction to interact with the IPG filter, or [[spam:epfl|these]] instruction for the EPFL filter. The Virus are **always** considered dangerous and suddenly blocked when they arrive to the mail servers. a message that contain a virus isn't delivered to users mailbox. NEVER. the users don't have control on what is a virus and not as happen with the spam messages. What is a virus is decided by the antivirus program, period.
