Spam or Junk Mail
It is up to the user
to maintain their own spam filter, below gives you direction on how
to do this.
A how to manage junk
(spam) mail on IronBay.Net. or other hosted domains with windows
email services.
1. Log into Web
Mail
Here.
2. On the top of page in the center click on
settings.
3. On the left side of this page you will see a link called Anti
Spam click that.
4. If you chose to have spam control place a check mark in the box
after Instant Anti Spam, if you don't want to have spam filter
uncheck or leave unchecked.
5. Next you will see Challenge Response, we have this feature
disabled as it will allow to many chances for errors.
6. Next you will see Spam Folder, the drop down box will depend on
if you want spam filtering or not. If you had checked the spam
filter box at the start then choose "use spam folder". If you do not
want to use anti spam, choose " do not use spam folder".
7. At the bottom of the page the last thing to check is the level of
spam control you want. If you have very little to no spam you would
want to use "low', if you get 10 or so spam messages a day you might
want to choose " medium", if you have a lot of junk mail se it to "
high".
You can now
automatically add people to your white list. It is very simple to
do. All you have to do is go into your webmail (www.ironbay.com
click check email). Click on your spam folder, that will show you
the contents of that folder. Place a check mark in front of the
email that you no longer want marked as spam, at the bottom left of
the page there is a drop down box, choose white list sender. Then
click the OK button at the bottom center of the page. That is it.
That person should no longer go into your spam folder. You can also
do the same to black list and email that comes in using the same
procedure.
You can also set up
Outlook Express to show your spam folder. In order to do this you
need to remove your current IronBay.Net email account from outlook
express. Then you have to create a new account instead of choosing
pop3 for your mail server type you would need to choose Imap.
The mail server setting are incoming mail server mail.ironbay.net,
and the outgoing server is smtp.ironbay.net.
This is the same for
both types of accounts. If you have any questions or problems call
