Barracuda Email Security Devices have been
implemented to protect email users from SPAM, Phishing and email-borne
Viruses that come in to UNC email addresses. These devices and
their web client application do not interfere with your privacy in any way, nor change your work habits.
All incoming email to UNC routes though these devices and is screened according to the
filtering programs, rules and virus scanning on these devices and any
modifications that a user makes to their profile. Email that
is tagged as SPAM is kept on the device and a daily report is sent by
email to each user listing messages that have been stopped by the
device. Users may then opt to deliver, add the message to the whitelist or delete messages
they deem as SPAM. This keeps most SPAM out of users' inboxes, and
also enables them to get messages that have been falsely identified as
SPAM.
Although SPAM messages caught are automatically
deleted after a 30-day period of time, users may also clean off these
messages on a regular basis to make it easier to find false positives.
