If you have been paying attention, the number and frequency
of suspicious email messages in your Inbox has risen steadily.
Messages pretending to be from eBay, your friends, and even
yourself. It seems like your spam filters are not doing their
jobs.
How to fight this? Use Postini™. Tekcetera is long
time partner of Postini and we have been recommending and
supporting the service for years now.
How does Postini work?
- Your
e-mail passes through Postini's automated filters that
detect suspected junk e-mail and viruses.
- Suspicious
e-mail is directed to your personal, web-based, password-protected
Message Center (it does not arrive at your computer's
inbox). Think of this as a quarantine area.
- In
your Message Center you can read the quarantined e-mail
online, delete it, or deliver (forward) it to your inbox.
- Initially
you should visit your Message Center often because Postini "remembers and learns" from your
interaction. As time goes on you will be able to rely on Postini's periodic
notifications of your Message Center activity.
- Postini
lets you "block" senders;
meaning e-mail from them will always be filtered. Or you can "approve" senders;
meaning their e-mail will always be delivered.
- This
service is completely controlled by you.
Note:
It is still necessary to have a Virus Protection Program
such as Symantec or McAfee Antivirus installed on your
machine.
How
does this help you?
- Most
Spam and Viruses get caught before it reaches your network,
mail server or desktop
- Your
precious resources are not consumed dealing with spam
and viruses. Resources include broadband (DSL/T1), your
network administrator, desktop support person, your employees
and of course, your dollars.
- You
control what gets through the filter and what does not.
