SpamWatch

1. An email is delivered to a VCI mail server from another mail server on the internet.
2. The VCI mail server scans the entire email and assigns a rating to that email. The rating is placed in the email as a "X-Spam-Level: " header.
3. The rating is a number like 4.0 or 9.3 The higher the number, the more likely it is spam.
4. If the rating exceeds your SpamWatch Sensitivity, as described below, the email is placed in your Spam folder. The emails in your Spam folder must be viewed and deleted from VCI WebMail.
5. If the rating DOES NOT exceed your SpamWatch Sensitivity, as described below, the email is placed in your Inbox.
