DataWeb, Inc. has partnered with anti-spam / anti-virus engine Postini to offer a service designed to fight junk e-mail — SIM2K^® DataWeb StickyNet. E-mail that appears to be junk or virus-infected is redirected to a password-protected online Message Center where you can review and retrieve selected messages if you wish. You will be able to set the level of restrictiveness, specify what kinds of subject matter you want filtered, and specify senders who are always or never filtered.

The software engine behind DataWeb StickyNet, Postini, uses a scientific method known as heuristics, which calculates the probability that a particular e-mail is spam by examining a pattern of characteristics in the message. DataWeb StickyNet will process messages in real time as soon as they enter the e-mail server, sorting spam into one of five categories: sexually explicit, hate mail, get-rich-quick schemes, bulk newsletters and commercial offerings. Users can then tailor how they want to handle the spam. The engine catches 90 percent to 95 percent of spam with a rate of fewer than 1 in 80,000 false positives, an impressive statistic in an era where anti-spam programs have suffered massive criticism for over- and under-blocking spam.

The Postini (Italian for “Postman”) engine acts like an antivirus program, updating itself to keep abreast of the latest trends in bulk messaging. You can even "disinfect" mail that has been "quarantined" because it appears to contain a virus, and then receive only the safe part of that mail.

DataWeb StickyNet services are private and secure. The junk email and virus protection is an automated process. Nobody will read your mail. Your email is not censored. YOU control the settings. Stop junk email at the Internet gateway long before it clogs your inbox with DataWeb StickyNet.
