Anti-SPAM filter / Anti-UBE
(unsolicited bulk email) / Anti-Virus Filter
Iomnis’s own anti spam server
stops most spam from your network. Unsolicited email
messages not only slow down productivity on the server they
also waste your employees time by forcing them to sort
messages in order to find relevant emails. Our Server can be used as
a standalone email server or as a relay server.
Features of the Anti-SPAM Server:
-
The filter uses a wide
range of heuristic tests to identify "unsolicited
commercial email”.
-
Header analysis: spammers
will attempt to hide their true identify, by fooling you
into thinking they've sent a valid email, or by making
you think you must have subscribed to their mailing list
at some stage. The filter will try to spot these patterns.
-
Text analysis: spam emails
often have a characteristic style, and often include
text like disclaimers. The spam filter can
spot these tricks.
-
Network tests: The spam
filter supports Public RBL's (Real-time
Black hole List) and Bulk
email checks to help crack
down on spammers.
-
File Analysis: The server
receives all email and puts it through an antivirus
scanner to ensure that email passing through is virus
free.
-
Automatic Virus
definitions update: The antivirus software used is
ClamAV, which is open source and free. Updates are
downloaded daily and, due to the nature of open source,
are free and no monthly recurring costs will ever be
incurred.

The Anti-SPAM uses several different
techniques to help stop spam at its entry point, before
it has a chance to your mailbox.
- The Server receives the email and
first passes it through the email attachment filter to scan for undesirable
executable attachments.
- The email then passes through the antivirus scanner to ensure that the
email passing through does not contain a virus.
- The email message is now received by
the Anti-SPAM engine. The engine uses it’s heuristics to
scan the content of the message. It will also perform an RBL (Real-time
Black hole List) scan as well as a Bulk
email check. A “spam-rating” number will be assigned to
the email.
- The spam rating number is determined
by a rule set that calculates the likelihood that a
piece of email is legitimate or spam.
- The server will determine whether to
delete the spam or let it pass though. If the email is
determined to be SPAM or contains a virus then a message will
be returned to the sender notifying them of this status
so that they will know their message has been rejected.
- Proper email will then be delivered to
the recipient.
