In order to combat the ever-increasing amount of spam (junk-email) that everyone receives, Vastcom has deployed a tool known as SpamAssassin (http://www.spamassassin.org). SpamAssassin uses an extensive rule base to catch spam. All email will be run through SpamAssassin. If the email is determined to be spam, ***SPAM*** will be placed at the beginning of the subject.  You can set up a simple 'rule' in Outlook to send all spam to a named folder. You will then be able to check the folder for 'false spam' before deleting all the spam messages.  

Open Microsoft Outlook Express.
Select Tools -> Message Rules -> Mail
Check "Where the Subject line contains specific words" box in dialogue box 1.
Check "Move it to the specified folder" box in dialogue box 2.
Click the "contains specific words" link in dialogue box 3.
