Postini+eMail+Filtering


 * Managing our Junk!**

Our email accounts at MCG (Mahaska Communcations Group) all get filtered before they deliver our @n-mahaska.k12.ia.us emails. This is called Postini. Postini is an email protection service that provides each user with a Message Center where your spam and viruses are filtered and quarantined. Your legitimate email messages are delivered to your email inbox, just as they always have, but junk and virus-infected email is routed to your Message Center. The service is customizable.

You are likely receiving automated 'warning' emails from the system. These provide a link to click on to go in and manage those emails identified by the system as either virus-infected or junk. Some emails may be building up that are of value to you...

Here is the 4 page handout from MCG explaining how to use Postini.
