We are using one of the most advanced SPAM filters on the internet.
It continually adapts itself to detect spam.

For the most part it does a good job, but occasionally a spam slips
through.

When you receive a spam, you have a choice to either just delete it
and move on, or report it to the spam filter to help improve its
performance. To report the spam select the message in your inbox,
right-click and select "Forward as attachment." (If your email
software doesn't support "Forward as attachment" simply forward
the mail.) Address it to spam-report@ethreemedia.net and click send.
You've done your duty and added the evil spam to the spam filter's
collection.

Just to remind you of the basic operation of our spam filter:
1) Anyone you email first will never have a message blocked when they send you a message.
2) Never email a spammer -- you validate their address authorizing
them to spam us.
3) Don't forward spam -- it makes the spam filter think we like it.
4) You SHOULD report spam by forwarding it to the notspam@ethreemedia.net
address.
5) The spam filter keeps track of mail we send and spam we receive --
if an incoming message is not from someone we've emailed and it's
more like the mail we send than the spam we receive then it gets
through as per normal. Otherwise it's tagged and the recipient receives the mail,
with the subject line re-written to include a [SPAM] tag.
6) If you become aware that mail you want is being blocked a quick fix is to send the
sender an email so their mail isn't blocked any more.
