Features

LuxSci's basic Spam and Virus filter service has the following features:

  • Available to LuxSci Email Users: Service is available to any user of LuxSci's email hosting services.

  • Per-User Licensing: Licenses for basic anti-Spam can be purchased for all users or on a user-by-user basis.

  • Configuration: Configuration is on a per-user basis; both the users themselves and their administrators can configure their basic Spam and Virus filtering settings.

  • Virus Filtering: using Clam AntiVirus. Virus rules updated hourly.

  • What to do with Viruses? You can decide if you want viruses-laden email to be deleted or saved to an email folder of your choice.

  • Disable Virus Checking: You can choose to turn off virus scanning.

  • Spam Filtering: using SpamAssassin.

  • Probable vs. Definite Spam: The Spam filter will identify messages as Legitimate, Probably Spam, or Definitely Spam. You can configure the thresholds that determine what is considered probable and definite Spam.

  • What to Do With Spam?: You can decide what you want to happen to email identified as Spam: delete it or save it to a folder of your choice.

  • Disable Spam Filtering: You can choose to turn off Spam filtering altogether.

  • White Listing: Support for per-user white lists of senders whose email should not be considered Spam. White lists support the white listing of entire domains.

  • Black Listing: Support for per-user black lists of senders whose email should always be considered Spam. Black lists support the black listing of entire domains.

  • Exempt Recipients Listing: If you receive email for many different addresses in your single account and you want email send to particular addresses to be exempt from Spam filtering, you can make a list of these exempt recipient email addresses. Exempt recipient lists support the exempting of entire domains.

  • Subject Line Tagging: You can choose to have the words "[SPAM]", and "[VIRUS]" pre-pended to the subject lines of messages so-identified. Depending on your configuration, this can make it easier for you identify these messages.

  • Spam Filter "Why" Reports: For messages determined to be Spam, you can choose to have reports of why this is the case added to either the header or body of the Spam messages. This can help you determine, for example, why a message was classified as Spam if it was actually Legitimate.

  • Quarantined Mail Reports: For Spam and Virus messages messages saved to a folder, you can receive daily emailed reports of what is new in these folders so that you can more easily identify false positives.

  • Do you use POP? If you use POP, you can have SPAM saved to your INBOX and use special headers in these messages to sort them in your email client as they are downloaded.

  • Do you use IMAP or WebMail? If you use IMAP or WebMail, you can have SPAM saved to a separate folder so that you can review it at your leisure and so that it does not interfere with the legitimate email in your INBOX.

Listen to Our Clients:

"Lux Scientiae is an exceptional resource, their support and service offerings are first rate, robust and reliable. Having suffered through a number of flaky e-mail/web hosting companies over the years, some very large names, Lux Scientiae is a breath of fresh air. I was pleased to find a hosting company that 'gets it' and provides services that are crucial to my business, but not common in the marketplace - primarily a well run secure POP/IMAP/SMTP service and excellent configurable spam-filtering tools that allow me to view and adjust my quarantine. The support for SPF DNS records is much appreciated as well. I recommend them to my friends and clients without hesitation. My sincere thanks and compliments!"
