New Email Filtering Option Available
An upgrade has been completed to IT Services' email filter to help reduce unwanted emails. In addition to the current email evaluation, the new filter will flag bulk mailer marketing messages as spam. This should not affect your ability to receive legitimate marketing messages.

Messages marked as potential spam will still be able to be released to your inbox and will be listed in a daily notification email with the subject line "IPFW Spam Quarantine Notification." Additional information on releasing messages flagged as potential spam is available in the IT Services knowledge base. Upgrading your account to use this additional filter is optional. If you are interested in adding this extra protection, contact the Help Desk at 481-6030 or helpdesk@ipfw.edu
