Checking your Mailbox in Spam Blocker

In the settings of each account you can specify the intervals for automatic anti spam mail check activated by default. You can start checking the selected mailbox immediately and at the same time indicate a new starting point for the interval by clicking button or by selecting one of the corresponding items in the context menu of the mailbox:

After manual start-up of the automatic check the interval of the next automatic check will be calculated starting from current check.

In addition, you can launch mailbox check in a completely manual mode. To do that, click button or select from the context menu item Start account check in manual mode. This anti spam check will not affect the time of executing the automatic check, i.e., it can be launched between the last automatic check and the next one. Also, manual check can be used in cases when automatic check is not activated at all (convenient for Spam Blocker users with dial-up connection).

Anti spam shield

To clean the mail account from spam a universal anti spam shield is needed which will save the money otherwise wasted on downloading weighty letters traffic and the time otherwise lost on viewing and deleting them. Such a anti spam shield is the spam filtering programs which remotely check the mail in the user box without uploading them and block unwanted letters immediately at the server. Such spam blocker programs are many. They differ in interface and functionality, but have one thing in common: obligatory check of email at the server.
