Email, Spam Control, How to release a message from quarantine or digest
How do I release a message from the Spam Control quarantine or check my digest?
Spam Control provides a daily End User Digest that lists spam messages sent to your Quarantine within the last 24 hours.
The Quarantine is a location on a server where email messages that are suspected to be spam, or messages that contain a virus, are stored temporarily so that they can be reviewed and retrieved, if necessary.
- You can review and take action on your own quarantined email through the use of the Web Interface, or by using the End User Digest.
- (You will have spam in your Quarantine only if you are in either the 'Cautious' or 'Aggressive' Personal Spam Policy. For more information, refer to the Overview of Spam Control page.)
Use the Web Interface:
After you log into the Web Interface, click Spam - Quarantined in the navigation window to view your Quarantine.
- To use the Web Interface, open a browser and point it to the following URL: https://go.illinois.edu/spamdigest.
