Bitdefender automatically adds the receivers of your e-mail messages to a Friends
List. The e-mail messages received from the contacts in the Friends list are
considered to be legitimate. They are not verified by the antispam filter and, thus,
they are never marked as [spam].
The automatic configuration of the Friends list does not prevent the detection errors
that may occur in these situations:
● You receive a lot of solicited commercial mail as a result of subscribing on various
websites. In this case, the solution is to add the e-mail addresses from which you
receive such e-mail messages to the Friends list.
● A significant part of your legitimate mail is from people to whom you never
e-mailed before, such as customers, potential business partners and others. Other
solutions are required in this case.
1. If you are using one of the mail clients Bitdefender integrates into, indicate
detection errors.
Note
Bitdefender integrates into the most commonly used mail clients through an
easy-to-use antispam toolbar. For a complete list of supported mail clients,
please refer to “Supported e-mail clients and protocols” (p. 94).
2. Decrease antispam protection level. By decreasing the protection level, the
antispam filter will need more spam indications to classify an e-mail message
as spam. Try this solution only if many legitimate messages (including solicited
commercial messages) are incorrectly detected as spam.
Add contacts to Friends List
If you are using a supported mail client, you can easily add the senders of legitimate
messages to the Friends list. Follow these steps:
1. In your mail client, select an e-mail message from the sender that you want to
add to the Friends list.
2. Click the Add Friend button on the Bitdefender antispam toolbar.
3. You may be asked to acknowledge the addresses added to the Friends list. Select
Don't show this message again and click OK.
You will always receive e-mail messages from this address no matter what they
contain.
If you are using a different mail client, you can add contacts to the Friends list from
the Bitdefender interface. Follow these steps:
1. Open the Bitdefender window.
