How To Use Computer Science Spam Controls

Introduction

Computer Science uses a combination of spam fighting tools. Primarily, we use free software call ASSP. ASSP uses an email interface to control how it behaves. See the links section below to learn how to control ASSP. We also do server side filtering for spam. Email that makes it through ASSP, but is still considered spam is automatically filtered into a mail folder called "caughtspam". You can turn this filtering off or on (on by default) here: https://admin.cs.vt.edu/email.pl

Here are links to documents telling you how to use the spam filtering software ASSP used by Computer Science.
