The Spam assault on the inbox will increase to 82% of all Internet email traffic by 2011 according to the Radicati Group. To combat this trend, IceWarp has developed the IceWarp Anti-Spam LIVE Service (Live Identification and Verification Engine) Service to bring IceWarp's Antispam identification to near perfect accuracy as spam far surpasses unmanageable levels.
It is estimated that spam accounts for roughly two thirds of all corporate email traffic – adding cost, complexity in management, increasing security risks and introducing one of the most well hidden Trojan horses to organizations today – lack of productivity.
* Anti-Spam LIVE service subscription is an optional add-on to IceWarp Anti-Spam.

Quarantine
To significantly reduce false positive identification without decreasing Anti-Spam efficiency, email from unknown senders that the IceWarp Antispam system cannot clearly identify as Spam can be quarantined for manual review and processing by end users. End users have full access to their own quarantine folder, allowing them to inspect and whitelist any messages incorrectly tagged as spam, thus ensuring that sender's email will bypass any Spam analysis in the future and be delivered directly to the recipient's inbox. Semi-automatic processing is also possible via the use of Challenge Response - senders of quarantined messages will receive an email notification that their email has been delivered to the recipient's inbox and allowing them to manually authorize themselves by comleting a short challenge / response confirmation.
The quarantine service provides:
- Daily quarantine reports by email
- Details shown include Subject, From, Date/Time
- Works with any HTML capable email client
- Not message but sender based
- Actions/Voting links to Authorize sender, Delete or one-time Deliver messages
- Users can manage and inspect Quarantine from WebMail
- Semi-automatic management with Challenge Response
- Messages left in quarantine are deleted on schedule
- Authorized senders won't be tagged/challenged ever again
Automatic Whitelisting
Automated Whitelisting is a powerful tool that ensures messages from legitimate business contacts that you communicate with will never be tagged as spam. The recipient of any email manually sent by a user on the IceWarp Server will automaticaly be added to the whitelist thus eliminating the fear of losing critical messages from those you communicate with.
