How AVG Anti Spam Filter Works and Its Settings?

Unwanted spam and junk mails are most email users concern. Mostly our inbox is filled with such unwanted mails more than other important mails. Apart from this there is always risk that these spam mails can turn out to be phishing or hoax. To deal with these junk mails you can use AVG antivirus anti spam feature which ensures that your inbox remain free from any such mails. You can apply this feature on the email client that is installed in your device like Microsoft Outlook or Mozilla Thunderbird.

To manage anti-spam settings: Open AVG>Go to its Menu>Click Settings>Components>Select anti-spam>customize. The main settings window allows you to decide how anti-spam filters the spam mails and you can even update the spam filtering rules. It would be better to take help from experts at AVG Support Number UK for this talk, as if you made any mistake in the settings then you might have to face bigger problem. To manage your email account you can follow the below email settings:

• Sensitivity: There is a green bar that lets you decide how strictly you want to anti-spam filter to analyze the incoming mails. By default there are only two bars (Medium protection), but if you want you can raise the bar for more strict analyses. But let me warn you, if you make the filtering more strict then there are higher chances of "False Positive".
• Add outbound receivers in Whitelist automatically: you can add the email address or the domain of the receiver of your mail into Whitelist. Whitelist contacts are considered as trusted members and their emails are not marked as spam.
• Mark in subject of spam: You can mark junk mails as "SPAM". This option is marked by default.
• Mark in Subject of Phishing: This option is also ticked by default. You can mark spam mail with the subject "PHISHING".
• Retrieve new rules: by default anti-spam filter keep checking for new rules every five minutes. It is a good idea to keep updating the latest criteria for identifying spam mails.

Here is an example for managing anti spam settings for all Microsoft Outlook users:

• Automatically move spam messages into junk folder: Any message that is identified as spam won’t appear in your mail box.
• Automatically add address book entries to whitelist: Your all Outlook contacts are considered as trusted senders and the mails send by them are never considered as spam.
• Send samples for incorrectly marked spam mails to us: If your emails are incorrectly marked as spam mails then you can report about this to us. You can select from the given options for false positive and missed spam:
• Ask: you have to decide case by case
• Yes: always send a report.
• No: never send a report

Apart from above mentioned ways you can also manage a blacklist and whitelist of your email account. The mails send by email address and domains you added in blacklist will never appear in your inbox and the mails send by contacts in your whitelist will never be marked as spam.
