  • While logged in to your Webmail account, click on Options at the top.
  • Click on Spam Filters
  • Scroll down to the bottom and click "Save Settings".

Now your settings have been saved. Please follow the next few steps to set up a filter so that any messages identified as spam will be moved to the Spam folder:

  • Click on Options at the top.
  • Click on Mail Filters
  • Under "Enter A New Filter", select the "mail/Spam" folder for the setting "if message is marked as SPAM then...".
  • Click the Save button

Now any messages marked as spam will be moved to the Spam folder. You can also set the Spam folder to delete messages automatically after they reach a certain age limit:

  • Click on Folders at the top.
  • Scroll down to "Expiration".
  • For the first setting that says "Expire emails in folder", select "Spam", specify the age limit in days, then click the Define button. We recommend 5-14 days.
  • You can view the current settings by clicking the drop-down menu on the second setting that says "Expire emails in folder".

This completes the initial setup. At any time you may adjust the spam threshold for your account by going under the Options menu, to Spam Filters, and changing the "Spam Score" setting.
