Additional spam filtering, to identify email messages which are sent from on campus and considered spam. ITS has installed a program called “SpamAssassin” on the College’s mail server. The Subject line is altered to include:[SPAM?] as a visual cue, and is then sent on to your email inbox for further action. We recommend you delete the message. You will continue to receive daily quarantine messages for spam received from off campus.<\/p>\n
Why was the change necessary?
\nThe change is necessary, because our current hardware is due to be out of warranty and we are implementing a standby failover system.<\/p>\n
