Server-side spam filtering (recommended)
Server-side spam filtering (default) is an easy way to filter spam emails into a special 'Spam' folder in your email account.
The filtering occurs on the server before you see the emails, and will operate whether you use an email client (such as Netscape Communicator) or one of the two web-based interfaces: WebMail (http://mail.monash.edu.au) or my.monash portal (http://my.monash.edu.au).
Client-side spam filtering
Client-side spam filtering uses filters that are created within your email client (eg Mozilla Thunderbird, Microsoft Outlook) that redirect emails Monash has marked as spam to a specific 'spam' folder.
Should you use server-side or client-side filtering?
ITS recommends that staff use server-side filtering. Server-side filtering is the easiest to set-up and works to filter emails before you see them.
However if you require more flexibility, use client-side filtering.
