Spamfilter

The solido spam filter delivers accurate spam filtering to your user's inbox with zero maintenance. Let us do the dirty work so that you don't have to waste your time writing spam filter rules or searching through your spam quarantine for lost mail. We watch the trends of the spammers around the clock--always looking for new ways to protect your inbox.

We believe one of the key points in having a great spam filter is the ability to adjust quickly. We have not only designed our spam filter with this in mind but we also have built up our team and development techniques around this key idea. Utilizing statistical models and data mining techniques, we are able to spot trends in the spam threat quickly--giving us a head start in developing techniques for neutralizing new threats. The use of multiple techniques to catch each spam mail allows us to detect and patch holes in our spam filters before the spam makes it to your inbox.

The solido spam filter detects all kinds of spam, not only text based spam. The spam filter combines methods that detect spam content or obfuscation of content in text, images and attachments. Our custom developed image and text fingerprinting technique is highly unaffected by noise and other obfuscation techniques used by spammers.
