SCL ratings of 2, 3, 4, 7, and 8 are not used by the service. An SCL rating of 5 or 6 is considered suspected spam, which is less certain to be spam than an SCL rating of 9, which is considered certain spam. |

Incoming messages with executable files attached (directly or within an archive file) will be assigned an SCL of 5 and be sent to your Junk E-mail folder. |
If you have Outlook installed on your computer and are using Outlook to read your mail, then there is additional spam filtering activity performed by Outlook on your computer - not the UAlbany Mail system. When Outlook is running, it will also use its own spam filtering guidelines and move some mail into your Junk E-mail folder even if the UAlbany Mail system delivered the message to your Inbox. Since Outlook may sometimes behave more aggressively than UAlbany Mail in moving mail to the Junk E-mail folder, be sure to check that folder regularly. Outlook has always disabled access to potentially unsafe attachments by blocking access to executable files.
Instructions
The spam filtering behavior in UAlbany Mail is automatic and enabled by default.
