I've been complaining recently about missing emails.

Just happened to stumble across a new option (for me anyway) in the FREEOLA Control Panel - Email settings, called SPAM CHECK

Before I 'blow a gasket' I thought I would ask other FREEOLA customers here if they are aware of this and it's just me that's missed a COMMUNICATION.

I knew FREEOLA were introducing anti-spam s/w but this option is news to me.

Over the last couple of weeks I've commented to Customer Services that I believe I've missed emails - not a lot back except for "your problem should now be resolved..."
Now I've found this option that shows what emails have been blocked!

I have around 50 FREEOLA domains and can see a maintenance nightmare.

Before I go any further, I would be interested in the comments of other FREEOLA customers.

Has anything changed ?

Just requested a blocked email to be resent and this time it made it.
It was a proper email so I'm afraid I can't trust your filters.

As I said I have too many email accounts and freeola domains to continuously check the current spam report format.

Any news on the opt-out option yet ?
Thanks.

There is CONSTANT refinement to improve accuracy. I can't easily explain here how it works but there is a great deal of work that goes into keeping it as close to accurate as can possibly be.

No news on opt-out yet.

Sorry to go on...

From what I can see it looks like you are using AMaVISd for our anti-virus/spam protection.

The documentation shows a spam_lovers setting that can be used for users that want to receive spam.

There is also mention of the ability of amavisd to support per-recipient whitelists and blacklists - these two functions should keep all your users happy.

Hope this helps.
