First, Antispam never deletes your emails. It only adds a signal string to the Subject line of the message, which enables you to move these messages to a separate SPAM folder by setting up a simple filter in your email client.

Second, Antispam maintains a white list of non-spam e-mail addresses. Once an address has been added to the white list, no message received from that email address will be ever marked as spam.

Third, spam is so annoying mostly because it arrives in your mailbox every minute and messes up with your business or personal email. When you see a new message in an email folder, your initial response is to go check what it is. When you discover it to be just another spam, you feel disappointed and distracted.

When you have most of your spam messages marked by Antispam and moved to a special folder by your email client, they would not bother you during the day. Later, when you have a few spare minutes, you would quickly look through the Subject lines of the marked messages in the SPAM folder. If there’s a message that was misclassified by Antispam (false positive), you would submit it for non-spam training.

According to our tests, each spam message takes up 10-15 seconds of your time when processed one by one upon receipt. The overall for 100 messages would be 15-25 minutes. On the other hand checking 100 spams in the SPAM folder in bulk mode takes no more than 5 minutes.

Note: If you wish to have less false positives, set the Spam cutoff in Antispam to 80 or even 90%. This way you will submit more spam samples for training, but will have less non-spam messages marked as spam. See our help files for more information.
