Annoyed with Spam? So are
we! As a tier two ISP we believe that it is not fully the responsibility
of end users to deal with spam. We also recognise that there are few if
any effective and accurate solutions available. That is why we have
established SNMail with an intelligent spam guard system. Our system has
been carefully designed and trained over the past year to understand the many
principles governing spam detection, which has reduced our clients spam by
98-100%.

What is Spam?
The term 'spam' as applied to email has
come to mean:
- Email which has not been
explicitly requested by the recipient.
- Is not specifically directed to the person (or rôle) behind the
address, but to a 'target' (i.e. the sender cannot provide a valid reason,
acceptable to an independent party, as to why that email was sent to that
particular person).
- (as a consequence of 2) may be sent in bulk,
i.e. to more than one recipient.
How our Spam Filter Works
All incoming email messages are checked for being spam through a four tier
filtering system. These tiers include checks on whether the email is
addressed properly to one of our clients, that the subject title obeys a series
of rules carefully designed to eliminate both adult and business related spam.
The emails are also checked against our regular offenders database which is
regularly updated and maintained.

Additional Spam Guard Measures
At SNMail we are dedicated to the combat against spam. Our sign
up procedure is such as to allow us to confirm the identity of our users
and ensure that our clients behave responsibly. We therefore will
remove any user caught sending spam.
