What are the features of Norton AntiSpam Online?

Norton AntiSpam will help you filter out unwanted email and thus making your online communications safer and more enjoyable. The automatic identification of spam will make it easy for you to block messages you don't want, without interfering with your legitimate email. Norton AntiSpam can also flag messages that have offensive content and block intrusive online ads.

Norton AntiSpam features include:

  • Email Fraud Detection
      Helps protect users from Internet scams or identity theft resulting from fraudulent email.
  • Enhanced Offensive Email Filtering
      Helps protect users and their children from unwanted sexually explicit email content.
  • Automatic Address Book Update
      Increases accuracy and convenience, as well as updates trusted lists when an email is sent out.
  • Language Filtering
      Helps improve spam-filtering accuracy as users define which languages are automatically as spam.
  • Automatic Filtering of Spam Email Messages
      Helps users with any standard POP3 email connection to identify spam email messages by adding a spam tag into the subject field and automatically move it to a Norton AntiSpam folder. Users can then select which action to take, such as delete the messages or review them later. Users can adjust the spam detection levels.
  • Works with Existing Email Programs
      Users can use Norton AntiSpam's powerful filter and trainable engine with their email program of choice.
  • Allowed List

  • User Trainable Engine
      Norton AntiSpam learns as it goes in order to become even more accurate over time. This increases the product's capability to differentiate between wanted and unwanted email messages. In other words, this increases the spam detection rates and reduces false alerts.
  • Customizable Spam Rules
      Users can customize their spam protection by identifying particular text strings that should and should not be filtered. When Norton AntiSpam encounters a message containing one of these text strings, it will immediately categorize the message based on the user's settings.
  • Automatic LiveUpdate
      LiveUpdate automatically checks for new protection updates whenever the user is online. Norton AntiSpam then downloads the latest updates transparently in the background.
