Users that avoid providing their e-mail address to spammers receive less spam. Web sites that are careful to make themselves a difficult target for harvesters also result in less unsolicited mail. With enough prevention effort, spam should be a rare occurrence. If it does arrive, there are several methods of handling it: gateway-based, server-based, and user-based. The right approach depends on the stance that your organization takes when dealing with spam and how much of a priority it is for you. A solid spam prevention configuration needs to be monitored and adjusted over time. Reserve some time every week to analyze the effectiveness of your anti-spam configuration, and periodically revisit your approach to ensure that it is still consistent with what is required. Overall, much can be done to avoid and reduce spam delivery. 16 Lotus Domino 6 spam Survival Guide for IBM eServer
