Scanning
You can scan all your email and have ParetoLogic Spam Controls detect and report any items that are known spam. All emails identified as spam are automatically moved to the PL Spam Controls folder.
To begin a scan:
- Select the Inbox folder or any of the Inbox subfolders.
- Click the Scan button.
- In the confirmation box that appears you can select the Scan subfolders option.
- Click Start Scan.
Note: If you select the PL Spam Controls folder, the Scan button is disabled as all the items in this folder have previously been identified as spam.
