Preemptive Spam and
Virus Filtering Services
Interactive Villages now
offers state-of-the-art email filtering service,
Email Assistant. Email Assistant provides you
the latest tools available to prevent junk email
and viruses from reaching your computer. Although
we have rudimentary virus protection on our email
server, we have been very cautious not to take
a "censorship" position with our customer's email.
Let Email Assistant put the control for email
filtering in your hands! Not
only will this system help reduce the growing
amount of junk email, but it also provides
a second level of virus filtering to
further help protect you. As part of our commitment
to provide our customers with new and beneficial
technologies, we are excited to be able to provide
this service.
The system is completely private and secure.
The filtering is an automated process and nobody
besides you ever has access
to your email. You control the
filter settings to suit your needs. We understand
that any type of filtering is a sensitive area,
which is why we have decided to offer this service...it
keeps the control where it belongs, in your hands.
Here is a brief overview of the email
filtering service:
- Your email passes through the automated filtering
system that detects suspected junk email and viruses.
- Suspicious email is directed to your personal,
private, web-based Message Center. It stops here
before reaching the inbox on your computer. Think
of this personal area as a type of quarantine.
In your Message Center, you can read any stopped
email safely without risking damage to your computer,
delete the messages, or if you choose forward
them on to your computer for delivery.
- You are encouraged to visit your personal
Message Center often because the mail filter "remembers
and learns" from your interaction with the system.
This helps the system to tailor itself to your
specific filter settings, allowing for the best
possible protection from junk email and viruses.
As time goes on you will be able to rely on periodic
notifications of activity with your Message Center.
- The system lets you block specific senders,
meaning email from them will always be filtered,
and you can also specify specific allowed senders,
that are always allowed to pass through your filtering.
- The service is completely controlled by you.
When your email filtering service is activated,
you will receive specific instructions on how
to use your personal Message Center and how to
get the most out of your junk email and virus
protection.
