Arkansas.Net uses a combination of a third-party software package called Postini, and its own custom filters to analyze messages as they are being delivered to your mailbox. The system marks messages that it suspects to be SPAM, and then sidelines them to another mail server. The sidelined messages are stored for 14 days, giving you a chance to look through them, just in case there's something there you want. After that time, they are removed.

One key part of this program is that we respect and protect your privacy. All e-mail messages are processed by a computer (not a human), so there are no prying eyes on your personal messages. This program adheres to our strict Privacy & Security Policy, which guarantees that we do not sell your name, e-mail address, or personal information to anybody for any reason.

The best part of this system is that it doesn't require any configuration changes on your end. You don't have to maintain or update any software packages, and you don't have to worry about old rules which won't catch the newest SPAM. SPAM simply is not delivered to your mailbox; instead, it is quietly sidelined away from you and your family. You only have to read SPAM if you want to - you're back in control!
