Spam fighting community - Free spam filtering

• Imagine, a spam email message lands in your email, you click delete and it disappears from your Inbox - and the Inbox of your family, your friends and the entire world. Cloudmark SpamNet is a worldwide spam-fighting community that gives you spam-free email just for deleting the spam from your own Inbox. Join SpamNet now and contribute to the global fight against spam.

  Although spam seems to be invading everyone's email, only a relatively small number of spammers send out the billions of spam messages polluting the Internet. By reporting the spam you receive, you will contribute to the growing community of spam fighters dedicated to eradicating spam. 

• Just like Napster allowed us to share a central list of our favorite music, Cloudmark Spamnet allows us to share a central list of spam. Individually this reported spam isn't very powerful, but the collective reports of millions of email users networked together blocks virtually all spam on the Internet. 
• So what do you get for your spam contributions to SpamNet? Well, you get free spam filtering. If that sounds good, download the Outlook add-in.

What's the difference between a POP3 account and a forwarding account?

A POP3 email account receives and stores email on the email server here at Frontpage. You log into the account directly to retrieve mail. A forwarding account uses your Frontpage domain name (you@yourdomain.com), but sends the mail to another email account that you specify. The other account can be anywhere; you@aol.com, you@home.com, etc. The messages are not stored on our server, but rather "forwarded" to the other target email account.  Each Frontpage account includes three or more POP3 email addresses and unlimited email forwarding.

 

What's a catch-all email address?

If you created POP3 email accounts and someone sends you an email addressed to a username that does not exist for your domain name, then you have two options.
1.  Use the 'catch-all' email feature. This feature will forward every email message that is going to a nonexistent email account to any other email address that you specify. This email feature allows you to not miss any email that comes to your domain name.
2.  You can do nothing and these emails will be automatically bounced back to the user notifying them that the particular email address is nonexistent.
