EPAmail applies a subset of the EPA method's capabilities to provide a 100%-effective filter-and-forward e-mail service that:
1. Operates in a 'live', 'real-world' Internet environment.
2.
Is seamlessly integrated into the operation of an existing, widely-distributed mail server environment.
3.
Supports both organizational and individual e-mail users.
The Service demonstrates the EPA method's ability to accurately, reliably filter and classify e-mail with absolutely no false results. To do so, EPAmail utilizes three fundamental EPA equality tests from which all EPA filters are constructed:
1. Comparing e-mail 'FROM:' field content with a list of preferred complete URL's and/or domain names and/or UserNames
2. Comparing e-mail 'TO:' field content with a list of preferred domain-local e-mail UserNames.
3. Comparing e-mail 'SUBJECT:' field content with a list of preferred words or phrases.
Incoming Internet e-mails addressed to an EPAmail mailbox are classified as "wanted" or "unwanted" according to the mailbox owner's Preferences.
Wanted e-mail is forwarded to another mailbox specified by the owner.
The owner can direct that all unwanted e-mail to be: 1.) Accepted and discarded; or 2.) Refused as undeliverable; or 3.) Forwarded to a designated mailbox.
The EPA Window Clerk assists you in specifying filtering criteria and mail processing instructions, transmitting your specifications to the EPA Mail Clerk for application, and viewing/copying operational records maintained by the Mail Clerk.
