APPLICATION TO ENABLE THE INTEGRATION OF ANTI-MAIL WASTE TECHNOLOGIES.

摘要

A method for determining whether a message is junk mail in a system with a plurality of anti-spam modules, comprising the steps of: invoking a plurality of the plurality of anti-spam modules (212); receive a level of trust from each other's junk mail among the plurality of the plurality of anti-spam modules (212); determine a higher level of junk mail trust based on junk mail trust levels; compare the highest level of junk mail trust with at least one threshold; and invoke an action (214) associated with said threshold (s) if the highest level of junk mail trust is greater than said threshold (s), in which the stage of invoking the action (214) includes: interrupt the connection used to transfer the message if the highest level of spam trust exceeds a first threshold level; return a non-delivery message to a sender if the highest level of spam trust exceeds a second threshold level and is below the first threshold level; deliver the message to a junk mail folder if the highest level of junk mail trust exceeds a third threshold level and is below the second threshold level.
