Abstract

Multi–layer spam detection systems frequently used in many SMTP servers often suffer from a lack of mutual communication between individual layers. The paper presents the construction of a feedback interconnection between two significant layers, namely Message contents check and Greylisting. The verification in a real SMTP server is performed, demonstrating considerable improvement of spam detection efficiency comparing the previous period with missing interconnection, while for a short testing period. Despite the limited generalizability of the result, it suggests the easy way how spam detection can be improved.

Notes

  1. 1.

    The only limitation of the interconnection described here consists in the fact that the existence of Greylisting’s AWL is substantial. However, this is true for almost all Greylisting implementations.
