Spam emails can be annoying and sometimes even risky. To help keep inboxes clean, every message that goes through a DataPacket mail server passes three layers of protection before it reaches you.
Whitelist and Blacklist
First, the mail server checks if the sender is on a whitelist or a blacklist. The whitelist is like a trusted list that allows safe senders through. The blacklist is the opposite and blocks known spammers right away. This step stops many bad emails before they ever reach your inbox.
Reputation Lists
Next, the email is checked against reputation lists from around the world. These lists show which mail servers have a history of sending spam. If a server has a bad reputation, its message is marked as suspicious and may be blocked. It works a bit like checking reviews before deciding to trust someone.
SpamAssassin Tagging
Finally, the message is scanned by SpamAssassin, which acts as a powerful spam filter. It looks for common spam traits by checking the content, layout, and words used in the email. If something looks suspicious, it tags the message so your email program can recognize it as possible spam.
With all three layers working together, you get the messages that matter and easily skip the junk. If you are being overwhelmed by spam, switch to DataPacket today and enjoy a cleaner inbox that works the way it should.
