Spam Filter

There are several spam filters who try to detect spam. They work in a row and each of them may cause 'false positives' (mail detected as spam but is not spam). A typical row:

1. Spam filter at the UZH mail server. Marked with '**-SPAM-**
2. Spam filter in Zimbra (Math Departement). Marked with '#SPAMz#'
3. Spam filter in the personal email program. Typical 'marked as spam'

4. Typically, all mail who is marked as spam by the UZH mail server (1) will be moved directly to the Junk folder. This happens through a so called 'sieve' filter on our mailserver.

5. Mails, who are detected as spam by Zimbra, are moved directly to the Junk folder too.

false positives

Every Spam filter needs training from time to time.

• The UZH mailfilter will be maintained by the compute center and you have no direct influence to it. You are able to adjust a 'score' which is responsible to mark a mail as junk. In general this is not necessary.

• The zimbra mail filter can be teached in the webinterface unter http://mail.math.uzh.ch.

  • select all mails which are junk and press 'Junk'.
  • False positives: mark all of them and press 'not junk'.
