What is the Email Digest and how do I use it?
The Spam Digest displays messages that have been classified as spam or low-priority/bulk. These messages are stored in your personal quarantine, allowing you to determine how to handle future messages from the senders – either allow the messages to be delivered or block them. Administrators decide whether to allow the user community to manage messages using the Spam Digest, the End User Web interface, or both methods.
Note: Links in the Digest are “tokenized”, meaning you can act on the messages directly from the Spam Digest. For this reason, you should always be careful about forwarding your digest to others as that could result in the recipient releasing messages from your personal quarantine or modifying your personal safe and block lists without your knowledge.
Messages are organized into two categories:
• Low Priority Mail – Quarantined
• Spam – Quarantined
If you add a Personal Safelist entry for a given sender, future messages from that address will be delivered regardless of whether they are identified as low-priority/spam. Similarly, if you add the address to your Personal Blocklist, future messages will be discarded.
To mark an email address as safe, simply click the Allow Sender (or Release and Allow Sender) link next to the appropriate email message in the Spam Digest. To mark an email address as blocked, click the Block Sender link for the message.
To receive an email containing a list of personal Safe Senders and Blocked Senders, click the Request Safe/Blocked Senders link in your Spam Digest.
Click the Manage My Account link in your Spam Digest to connect to the End User Web interface. Within the web interface you can perform various actions on all quarantined messages, including releasing them, adding safe/blocklist entries, or deleting them.
When you add a domain name (e.g., yahoo.com) to the Safe Senders list, all email addresses from that domain will be considered “safe.” You should restrict the safe list to specific senders by entering their full email addresses (for example, john.doe@yahoo.com).
