Quarantine Settings
Click on the Quarantine Settings tab
In the Quarantine Settings section you have three options:
1. Enable Quarantine
You have two settings in this section, Yes and No.
If you set your Quarantine Enable to "Yes", messages that the
server is "pretty sure" are Spam will be sent to your Quarantine
Inbox instead of your email client inbox. Messages are kept in quarantine
for 15 days before being permanently deleted.
If you set your Quarantine enable to "No" messages the server
is "pretty sure" are Spam will be delivered to your email client
inbox with a prefix of [QUAR] in the subject line. Messages that the server
thinks might be Spam but is not sure, are tagged with [SPAM] in the subject
line and delivered to your regular email inbox.
2. Quarantine Notification
This is where you set if you wish to receive a notification from the server
that you have messages in your Quarantine Inbox.
You can set this notification to daily, weekly or never and can choose to
specify another email address which the server will send the notification
to (it defaults to your Webster address). Messages are kept in quarantine
for 15 days before being permanently deleted.
3. Default Language
Here you may choose the default language in which messages are displayed.
Make sure that you click the "Save Changes" button after making
any change in any section.
Spam Settings
1. Click on the Spam Settings tab
2. There is only one option on this section you consider.

If you choose "Yes" all of your incoming email messages will be
scanned, scored and tagged.
If you choose "No" none of your incoming messages will be scanned
scored or tagged.
Please Note: Setting the Spam Filtering to "No" overrides
the "Yes" and "No" in the Quarantine Settings.
Make sure that you click the "Save Changes" button after making
any change in any section.

checking with the Help
Desk and/or a technician.
