CAMPUS IMPLEMENTS NEW SPAM FILTER
On Sept 9, ITS will be implementing a new e-mail filtering service for
the campus. To most e-mail users the change will be largely transparent;
suspected messages will still be tagged as -Potential Spam- and the new
service will still also provide anti-virus protection. ITS believes this
new solution will help the campus more aggressively address the
increasing threat that spam poses
to productivity. To learn more about this change, please go to
http://www.colorado.edu/its/email/spam.html.
Contact: IT Service Center

adheres to the CU-Boulder "Use of Faculty/Staff Electronic Memo System"
policy and is monitored by the Chancellor's Electronic Communication
Committee. See http://www.colorado.edu/ememo/ for more information.
