Spam Slicer Small Business Edition

How Spam Slicer Works

With Spam Slicer, your company email passes through the Spam Slicer servers on the way to your company. Spam Slicer combines several functions to provide a spam-free inbox for users without the usual filtering risk of mistakenly deleting important messages as spam.

  1. First Spam Slicer makes each of your company's email addresses flexible, so your users can add a dot and an identifier phrase within their email address - ex: johndoe.webpage02@yourcompany.com. Even with the extra characters, Spam Slicer knows to deliver the mail to the proper place.
     
  2. Then a small change is made to your email software's set up so it can recognize when an identifier is being used.
     
  3. If a message comes in with an identifier or from somebody in your company's global address list or in the user's contact list, it will be delivered into his inbox.
     
  4. If not, it can be delivered into a separate suspects folder, or even deleted automatically.
     
  5. In most cases, when a junk mail message makes it into your user's inbox, he'll know from the identifier where the user obtained his address. This allows him to immediately tell Spam Slicer to stop delivering that mail.
     
  6. Spam Slicer puts a block only on that identified address, allowing all other mail to continue to arrive properly. Whenever a spammer tries to reach the user at that address, Spam Slicer returns a message that the address doesn't exist. Many spammers will pull the address from their lists automatically when they detect inoperable addresses.
     
  7. While this approach typically gives up to 99% reduction with no false positives, we have even stronger measures for problem accounts. We call this lockdown.

How might you use these flexible addresses?

  • Place a unique identifier in your email address connected with each merchant account - so you can quickly react to overzealous marketers and see who doesn't obey their privacy policies
     
  • Place a unique identifier in your email address connected with bank accounts so you can quickly recognize scammers trying to beat you out of your money or trying to steal your identity
     
  • Use unique identifiers in your email address when you join organizations or industry groups who publish your email address in directories. You'll always know when somebody is using the organization as a source.
     
  • Place a unique identifier in your email address for each subscription for which you sign up. If the publisher changes his address, your local message filing rules will still work.
     
  • We won't go into personal mail, contests, etc. Even though employers don't want personal mail to go to work, it still does. Spam Slicer helps here too.
