It involves sending unwanted messages, often unsolicited advertising, to a large number of recipients. Spam is a serious security concern as it can be used to deliver Trojan horses, viruses, worms, spyware, and targeted phishing attacks.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">Virus Bulletin  has tested 20 anti-spam programs including : <em>Anubis Mail Protection Service, BitDefender Security for Mail Servers 3.0.2, Kaspersky Anti-Spam 3.0, McAfee Email and Web Security Appliance, Symantec Brightmail Gateway 9.0, Messaging Architects M+Guardian si Webroot Email Security Services<\/em><br \/>\nThe test uses two live spam streams, which are sent to all the filters participating in the test in random order, thus exposing each to exactly the same email stream, in real time; in addition hundreds of legitimate emails are sent through the products every day, also in real time. The test measures both the false positive rate and the spam catch rate of the products, and VBSpam certifications are awarded to products that exceed a predefined benchmark based on both measurements.<\/p><div id=\"mwtad882150303\" class=\"gas_fallback-ad_381396-ad_309691-placement_360566\" style=\"margin-top: 30px;margin-bottom: 30px;\"><script async src=\"\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-7750719144850257\" crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script><ins class=\"adsbygoogle\" style=\"display:block;\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-7750719144850257\" \ndata-ad-slot=\"1471373341\" \ndata-ad-format=\"auto\" data-full-width-responsive=\"true\"><\/ins>\n<script> \n(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); \n<\/script>\n<\/div>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">All products tested have received the &#8220;VbSpam&#8221; Award , except for <strong>GFI VIPRE and Pro-Mail<\/strong>, and as you can see in the chart below, the most effective detection were: \u00a0<strong>OnlyMyEmail, Libra Esva, SpamTitan, McAfee Email Gateway and Symantec Brightmail.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/malwaretips.com\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/01\/savee1.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-151\" title=\"savee\" src=\"\/\/malwaretips.com\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/01\/savee1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"418\" srcset=\"https:\/\/malwaretips.com\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/01\/savee1.jpg 600w, https:\/\/malwaretips.com\/blogs\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/01\/savee1-300x209.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/a><br \/>\n<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Virus Bulletin announced the results of a new anti-spam comparative test.
