FAQ:

What is it? Coastside Net has partnered with Postini Corp. to provide an advanced mechanism to block "Spam" messages and messages infected with computer a virus from reaching your mailbox. Such messages are captured to a "quarantine" area where you may review the message and then delete it or accept it and have the message delivered to your mailbox.

How do I know when messages have been intercepted? An Email alert is sent to your mailbox when an infected message has been quarantined. You will also receive an Email notification every 7 days reporting the status of your message center, which intercepts spam e-mails.

How is a message determined to be Spam? Postini analyzes each message for key characters, words or phrases. If the message contains an excessive amount of these keys the Email is determined to be spam and captured to the message center.

What if I want to get some or all Spam messages? You can change the filter sensitivity so that Emails are less likely to be blocked or the spam filtering feature can be turned off.

Enough Already! How do I get started? Your spam filtering and virus protection will be activated the first time you login to your personal message center. Go to the login page and enter your e-mail address and e-mail password to get started. (We recommend you bookmark the login page for future reference.) Go to Login
