By default FTGate4 creates a Default Domain filter policy. This filter policy has a set of rules pre-configured but its is untrained. We recommend that the following method be used for the initial configuration of the UbeBlock ratings.
Connect your mail client to the IMAP port
Open the shared folders and find the UbeTrainingNotSpam folder
Go into your sent items folder and find 30 messages that cover a broad spectrum of the type of emails that you send and receive.
Copy them into the UbeTrainingNotSpam folder
Now UbeBlock is primed with a base set of the language used in your messages. Messages that do not fall into this category will be marked as spam. Messages that get through can be dropped into the UbeTrainingSpam folder to improve detection rates.
Two training methods:
b) By dropping the message into the appropriate IMAP shared folder .
Access to the shared folders can be configured in the Local domain A domain in FTGate that contains one or more User, List, Group or system Mailbox options.
This is the recommended training option.
b) By sending a message to the system mailbox
e.g. system@mydomain.com
The message sender must be
i) authenticated
by IP or AUTH
ii) have access rights to the spam training system
The message must have a subject of "spam" to train as spam
The message must have a subject of "notspam" to train as not spam
