INCREASE PRODUCTIVITY BY CUTTING THE COST OF
SPAM
What is Spam?
Spam is unwanted email flooding the Internet with many
copies of the same message in an attempt to force the
message on people who would not otherwise choose to
receive it. Most spam is commercial advertising, often
for dubious products, get-rich-quick schemes, or quasi-legal
services. Spam costs the sender very little to send
-- most of the costs are paid for by the recipient or
the carriers rather than by the sender.
How Does It Work?
- R2Group’s Anti-Spam Engine looks through each email
you receive and compares it to a pre-existing rule
set * of known spammer tricks.
- The Engine uses a points system. When email comes
in with “Viagra” on it, it is assigned a certain point
value. When the same email comes in 10 times from
the same source, that's another point value. When
the engine tags each email with a certain number of
"points", it considers it spam
- If the spam email does not fit the current rule
set, the filtration system will study the email and
generate a new rule set based on the new spam received.
- The filtration system has a small chance of false
positives (good email marked as spam) due to the intelligent
engine used to examine email.
Note:
A Rule Set is a conditional statement that tells
the system how to react to a particular situation.
What are Spam tactics?
- Spammers have been documented as stealing other
site's domain names via email forgery.
- Spammers solicited donations for relatives of the
victims of the 9/11/2001 terrorist attacks on the
USA.
- Spammers supply a phone number that you are supposed
to call to be removed. The call can cost $2 per minute.
- Spammers will sell someone a mailing list and tell
them that the people on it want advertising e-mail.
- Spammers will embed viruses and applications to
exploit your mail and computers.
