- An e-mail comes into the UWB network addressed to and address in the uwb.edu mail domain ts from an outside source.
- The e-mail server runs the message through mail gateway systems that test each e-mail and score it based on its spam characteristics.
- If the final score of these characteristics exceeds the maximum threshold for SPAM identification the message is flagged with **SPAM?** in the subject line.
- If the recipient's e-mail account has an active Outlook junkmail filter or a specialy crafted rule to sort for this subject tag, the message will be moved directly into the recipents Junk Mail folder.
- If the recipient's e-mail account does not have a spam filter in place, the mail will appear in the recipient's inbox.
(Note: If you are forwarding e-mail from any other mailbox to your uwb.edu address, there may be further SPAM prevention technologies affecting your e-mail delivery. You should check with that e-mail provider to confirm these settings.)
