Email SPAM and Virus Filtering


Email SPAM and Virus Filtering

YK Communications uses one of the most powerful and secure Email systems
available in the world to keep your messages as safe and uncluttered as possible! 
Inbound and outbound mail is analyzed and can be filtered by the following categories:    

SPAM (Junk Email) Filtering
SPAM is a term used to describe unsolicited email.  This includes mass marketing and "JUNK" email messages.  The amount of SPAM has increased to the point where it has frustrated many Internet users. 
YK Communications is pleased to offer one of the most powerful and accurate SPAM filtering systems in the world to all YKC customers completely free of charge!

Any message that is sent from or delivered to YKC's Email system will automatically be evaluated in a very complex process that looks for signs and characteristics of SPAM. 

YKC's Spam Analyzing Engines are updated multiple times daily by professional SPAM fighting experts. This means that our system reacts quickly to block minor changes SPAMMERS use to attempt to bypass our system with "JUNK" email.

We try very carefully to balance strong aggressive SPAM filtering with the least amount of false-positives (a blocked message that is not really SPAM). Our commitment is to keep the number of false positives as low as possible.

Once a message has been identified as SPAM, it is moved to your personal quarantine report. This keeps your inbox free from the overwhelming clutter of Junk email. You can review and even release messages from your personal quarantine by visiting http://webmail.ykc.com  Messages that have been stored in your personal quarantine will automatically be deleted after 5 days without any action required from the user.
Although we highly discourage it, you can disable SPAM filtering on your account by visiting http://webmail.ykc.com. For additional information on Quarantine Reports please click here.

A message is potentially unsafe if:
