If you use a browser to read your email messages, you must set up Anti-Spam to filter your webmail account messages. Anti-Spam connects directly to the email server and filters messages before your webmail account retrieves them.
Anti-Spam filters these webmail accounts:
| • | POP3 webmail (for example, Yahoo!) |
| • | Microsoft Hotmail |
To set up Anti-Spam to filter your webmail, add your webmail account to the webmail filtering rules. You can get your webmail account information from your email provider. Once you add a webmail account, you can edit your account information and manage the way Anti-Spam filters your webmail. If you are no longer using a webmail account, or you no longer want your webmail filtered, you can remove it from your webmail filtering rules.
| • | Add a webmail account to the webmail filtering rules Add a webmail account to your webmail filtering rules if you want to filter the messages you receive from that account. |
| • | Specify webmail filtering rules You can specify the rules that Anti-Spam uses to filter your webmail accounts. |
| • | Change an entry in the webmail filtering rules When you make changes to your webmail account (for example, if you change your password), you must update the account information in your webmail filtering rules. You can also edit your webmail filtering rules to change how often you want Anti-Spam to check your webmail account. |
| • | Stop filtering a webmail account Remove a webmail account from the webmail filtering rules if you no longer want to filter its email for spam. You might want to do this if your account is no longer active, or if you are experiencing problems with the account and need to troubleshoot the issue. |
