more stringent email protection

Mark Young

I want to make our email SPAM filter become stronger.

 

Right now, we are using Content Filtering and any email having a score of 50 or less is considered to be free of SPAM and is delivered. Otherwise, messages between 51 and 100 are held in quarantine.

 

My question is, do I make the Content Filtering Threshold higher or lower to make it tougher for an email to make it through to the users inbox?

    Evening Mark,

    From your message I assume you're not talking about content filtering in the Sophos email appliance.

    Sophos carry out automatic SCL checks with the following results being applied:

    Messages with a probability score of 90% or higher is considered high spam and discard.  Scores between 50% - 89% are classified as medium and quarantined, if the rule is defined that way. 

    Regards,

    Neil.
