Step 6: You can either choose to have the email alias use its Domain's spam settings (the default) or define settings for the forward itself, by unchecking the Use domain spam settings checkbox. The threshold value is the spam score that must be exceeded before the Spam Action is performed; the more likely an email is to be spam, the higher its spam score. Setting the Threshold value higher means less email will be marked as spam.

Any email deemed to be spam, that is going to leave our network, will be deleted.

After changing the spam settings, click the Save button to save them.
