custom blacklists
rules-based screening
fingerprinting
The solution, a partnership between Sprint and the University of Louisville, will quarantine suspect mail outside of UofL systems to prevent overload of individual email boxes and university email resources. You will be able to view, salvage, delete and report mail as false positive.
Any mail in the spam quarantine which has not been acted upon will be automatically deleted after 15 days. Once deleted, it cannot be retrieved. Therefore, we encourage everyone to review their quarantined email on a regular basis.
