Q. Can I add / remove words from the Sensitive Word list?
A. No, you cannot add or delete the words from the sensitive word list. You can, however, add your own words by creating a reject rule in the policy filter.
Q. What do I do with unfiltered Spam messages?
A. Please forward a copy of the spam message along with full internet headers to our Spam team at abuse@frontbridge.com. One spam message per submission, please. Submitting a group of messages in an attachment is not the best way as much of the original spam message can be lost.
Q. The Spam filter caught a legitimate piece of email. What do I do?
A. Please forward a copy of the message along with full internet headers to our False Positive team at false_positive@frontbridge.com. They will review the message and adjust our filters where needed to prevent the exact message from being tagged as spam moving forward.
Note: You may also select the “Salvage” or “Do not block” options for the message in from your SpamShark account or HTML notification.
