Spam Monitor Quick Start Guide

Spam Monitor is an easy-to-use spam filter that detects and isolates unsolicited junk mail sent to your mailbox. Designed for computer users, not experts, Spam Monitor's step-by-step wizard configures your PC with the safest anti-spam settings automatically.

This Quick Start Guide is designed to get you started using Spam Monitor immediately. The first time Spam Monitor is run, the Configuration Wizard starts, which guides you through setting up Spam Monitor's spam email filtering options on your system. On subsequent starts, Spam Monitor's Main Status screen displays. From this screen, you can enable real-time spam email filtering, manage your legitimate and spam email and IP address lists and train Spam Monitor to fine tune its spam detection capabilities.

Main Status Screen

Select an Action

This section provides immediate access to the main functions of Spam Monitor. Clicking these buttons does the following actions:

	Displays the Address Lists screen, where you can review and alter your Friends (legitimate) and Block (spam) Lists. From here you can also configure the Automatic Friends List, which automatically adds addresses to your Friends List, based on the frequency with which they are received.
	Displays the Filter Training Wizard, where you can further improve the spam detection capabilities of Spam Monitor by allowing it to recognise patterns in the emails you receive. Exposing the advanced Bayesian Filter to both clean and spam email messages increases the efficiency with which Spam Monitor identifies spam emails.
