Sending SPAM to be Filtered – Instructions

Instructions

GroupWise E-mail

When you send e-mail to SPAM to be added to the campus-wide e-mail spam filter, please forward those as attachments to spam@tmcc.edu.

  • Right-click on the email from the list
  • A menu will open (see screenshot 1 below)
  • Left-click on "forward as attachment"

This gives us vital information that is normally hidden and does not come through when someone simply forwards an offending email.

Please note: If you have the item opened in a separate window, click on the down pointing arrow to the right of forward and pick forward as attachment. See screenshot 2

Fax E-mail

Please do not forward email received in any of the fax mail boxes. The spammer uses a fax to call your fax so we have no trail to investigate to track down the source of the spam. The faxes that arrive in fax email accounts are images and we can do nothing about them.
