How does weighted phrase filtering work? Weighted Word and Phrase Filtering works by looking at all the text that appears in an E-mail, then giving combinations of words and phrases described in the Rules a positive or negative weight value. Phrases associated with good subjects will have negative values. phrases associated with bad subjects will have positive values. The values are added together to give the E-mail a total weight. If the total weight equals or exceeds the Weight Threshold set for a Group, then the E-mail is flagged for moderation. There are four ways you can match words. Using the word can as an example: 1. Exact Match - This will only match the word can by itself. 2. Contains - This will match can, candy, scandal, or pecan. 3. Begins With - This will match can or candy. 4. Ends With - This will match can or pecan. You can match phrases in the same way. Using the phrase net cam as an example: 1. Exact Match - This will only match the phrase net cam by itself. 2. Contains - This will match net cam, net camera, internet camera, or internet cam. 3. Begins With - This will match net cam or net camera. 4. Ends With - This will match net cam or internet cam. You can also make rules based on the existance of more than one word or phrase in an E-mail. For instance, you can give an E-mail one weight value if it just contains the word breast, but give it a different weight value if it contains breast and chicken. Making these kinds of rules helps eliminate false flagging that may occur for words that have more than one meaning.
