CITES Spam Control

In order to help the campus community fight the growing global spam email problem, CITES created CITES Spam Control. On an average day, this software stops 1.6 million spam email messages and 8,000 email borne viruses before they are delivered to individual mailboxes.

New student email accounst are automatically enrolled in CITES Spam Control and protected automatically. If you find you need to change the Spam Control settings, there are several ways to customize CITES Spam Control to suit your needs. The default setting of Cautious Plus works for most new students. This setting deletes messages that are definitely spam and sends messages that might be spam to a quarantine that you can use to double-check whether the message really is spam.

You are allowed to change your CITES Spam Control settings whenever you like. For more information on how to change your settings, get messages out of the quarantine and create safe sender lists, visit the CITES Spam Control Tutorials.
