Why can't I log into Safe4Mail?

This is either a typo in which case you need to retype your email address or password more carefully next time, or, you are not using a valid email address or password.  If you're certain about your email address, then verify your email password because Safe4Mail authenticates your password directly from your email account.

I have my own Exchange server.  Can I still use Safe4Mail?

Yes.  Safe4Mail would reside between your Exchange server and the trillions of spammers on the internet and filter spam out before it gets to your server.

How can I use Safe4Mail to protect multiple email address'?

You can use Safe4Mail per email address separately, or have your email administrator utilize Safe4Mail's Administrative login that enables Alias's to be assigned that will point to your primary email address so you only have to check 1 email account in Safe4Mail.

Can I get reports on my spam activity?

Yes.  Once per day you will receive a "Daily Digest Report" that will show you a list of "Unknown Senders", "Possible Spam", "Apparent Spam", etc. in addition to a piece-count on spam blocked, emails sent and emails received.  With a quick glance at this report, you might not even need to check Safe4Mail for that day.

What are the recommended settings for a good Safe4Mail configuration?

Believe it or not, but the configuration wizard automatically chooses the ideal settings for all aspects of inbound message processing.

I'm missing an email, why did Safe4Mail catch it?

This usually means that Safe4Mail is set to 'tight', and you should go through the configuration wizard once more to refine your settings.  Let Safe4Mail choose your settings for you.

What do I do if I still receive spam messages?

Your Safe4Mail settings are set far off, and you need to go through the configuration wizard.  This time, let Safe4Mail choose the default settings.

If I use ALL default settings, do I still have to log in?

If you use the default settings, including the Daily Digest report settings, you NEVER have to log in to Safe4Mail. As a matter of fact the biggest objective of Safe4Mail is to keep the user from having a second inbox to keep up with.
