Couldn't find a thread like this hence this new one. Just wondering
what strategy people are using when it comes to dealing with email
that gets enough points to be considered as spam. Eg. being deleted
and quarantined, or delivered and quarantined etc.
I'm using store and deliver - is that the general concept out there
with everyone?
At work we reject any mail tagged as spam (5 points +) during the
SMTP session. This has the benefit of sending notification to the
true sender rather than having my server try to delivery a NDR after
the fact. I haven't had a report of a false positive from any of my
users in the last year. Still get some false negatives (mostly
419'er stuff), but overall my users are happy. This set up obviously
won't work for all organizations, but as a school we find our user
base and email content to be rather homogenous.
At home, since I'm using fetchmail, I sort all mail tagged as spam
into a subfolder of each users Maildir.
