We will be implementing a new spam filtering software on Monday, April 9th.  This system should help to improve the overall performance of filtering out spam messages.  90% of the incoming emails to the campus are classified as spam.  In order to ensure that your mailboxes are not bombarded with these useless emails, we needed to find a more reliable solution to stop them before they are delivered to you.

 

Of course, no spam filter solution is perfect, and you need to be able to check your spam for legitimate emails that might get caught in the filter.

There is a one time setup that you must complete and then you will be able to use the link in myMILLIKIN without logging in each time.  Click here to view directions for that setup.

 

Because Internet traffic is distributed using many routers all over the world and it can take about a week for the new information about our filter to propagate the web.  There will be links to the old and the new spam filter system on myMILLIKIN to check for emails that you think could have been caught by a spam filter.
