SpamWeeder Saves You Time and Money

Webservio's SpamWeeder Solution Although everyone knows that spam emails are a nuisance and very time consuming, most people have never sat down to figure out how much money these annoying, unwanted emails actually waste. Follow the example to see just how much time and money your company invests in spam each year:
  • You have 100 employees.
  • There are 250 workdays per year for each of those workers.
  • Every employee gets paid an average of $20.00 per hour.
  • Each employee receives an average of 10 spam messages per day.
  • Each person spends 5 seconds for each message by waiting to receive it, review it, and then delete it. (That's 50 seconds per day per employee, or 1.4 hours total!)

The bottom line is that you, the employer, spend almost $7,000 a year (about $28 daily) paying your employees to sort through all those spam emails. Combining the lost time for all 100 workers, almost 44 days of productivity are lost every year! In this scenario, a company pays one employee per year to check spam mail for every 580 people employed. At this rate, the SpamWeeder system will pay for itself in just over 30 days. Do the math for your company and sign up for the SpamWeeder plan that’s right for you today.

Sheltering Your MX Record

Every domain has at least one mail exchange record (MX record) to relay emails to the correct address. If your mail server has only one MX record, it is exposed to public access, which spammers easily view and gain entrance to. Inevitably junk mail, viruses, and harmful messages can flood your unsheltered mail server. In addition, spammers can even “borrow” your mail server and use it to send mass spam all over the internet. For the safety of other email users, such as your clients, your server may then be placed on an email blacklist with the result that many reputable domains will reject mail sent from your MX record.

With Webservio SpamWeeder, your mail exchange server will be sheltered from the outside world, protected by up to four MX records provided to you upon set up of your SpamWeeder service. No messages will get through to your system without first routing through our anti-spam and anti-virus filter. Your server will also be protected from the danger of transformation into a spam zombie. Your mail exchange record will be safe from infiltration and protected from malicious or junk emails.

Securing Your Email

Unwanted emails not only waste your resources, they are also potentially dangerous. Spam mail will sometimes redirect you to phishing Web sites which can compromise your personal information. You will block these un-safe emails by using Webservio’s SpamWeeder service to fight spam. Your security will be increased with the certainty that the emails received by your employees will not put your privacy in jeopardy.

Web-Based Message Quarantine

All email users for your domain will have access to the Web-based email quarantine where they may review suspected spam emails. Each user may flush or delete messages, set his or her language preference, and control the user-level accepted and blocked sender list. The domain administrator has even broader abilities with the capability to add domain and user aliases and control the functionalities and settings at the domain and user levels.

No Sweat Setup

SpamWeeder is a server side solution, so there is very little, if any, setup and maintenance on your end. Once this quick set up process is completed, your mail server will be protected and you will almost instantly notice a decrease in the volume of spam and unwanted emails.
