If you choose this option, the spam filter will be activated when you complete the setup process. You can turn filtering off at any time.
If you are using Web-Based Email, the Spam Filter is automatically activated when you log in to your account. You can deactivate it manually from the program menu, if so desired.

ABOUT THE SPAM-FILTERING STRENGTH SETTING
The Spam Xploder spam filter allows you to customize the filter's sensitivity to incoming bulk mail by changing the "Spam Filtering Strength" level. There are five settings: "Very Low," "Low," "Medium," "High," and "Very High." The higher the strength level, the more incoming mail will be considered spam by the filter. By default, the Spam-Filtering strength is set to "Very Low." You can change the setting using the "Spam Settings" menu in Web-Based Email or from the "Options" menu in the Spam Xploder Management Client. If you do not know which strength level suits you best, you can experiment with various settings until you find one that suits your personal preference.
