VIPRE releases new Spam Tagging option as part of the Filtering settings

What's New

This release of VIPRE Email Security Cloud includes Spam Tagging, a new option as part of the Filtering settings. Spam Tagging enables the delivery of anything we would otherwise stop as spam, but with a custom text 'tag' either in the subject line or hidden in the email headers for filtering downstream. A tag can be applied to low, medium, and high-category spam.

Special Instructions

To fully enable Spam Tagging:

1. Click the checkbox next to Enable Spam Tagging
   • Enable Spam Tagging: This option is disabled by default. Enabling Spam Tagging will deliver incoming emails to your mail server with:
     • A low, medium, or high spam classification
     • A tag in the email subject or the header
2. Configure the following settings:
   • Spam Tag and Deliver Settings: Selecting Low, Medium, or High determines the spam threat threshold. Please note that selecting Medium or High will result in the delivery of the thresholds under it.
   • Tag Type: Selecting a Tag Type from the drop-down menu allows you to choose if a spam tag will be added to the email’s subject line + header or only the header.
   • Tag Message: Tag that is appended to the email subject line and/or header. This is automatically chosen based on your Spam Tag and Deliver setting and is customizable.
     • You’ll be able to see a preview of the header next to the Tag Message
3. Click Save in the bottom right corner of the page

Spam Tagging has now been configured and enabled.
