Six Dimensions of Comprehensive Messaging Security IP-Reputation Anti-spam It checks each email connection request with a database of IP addresses to establish whether a sender is legitimate or known spam sender and malware. If a sender is recognize it undesirable the messaging Security program drops the connection before the message is accepted.

When a message comes in, its pattern is calculated and checked against a database to determine if the message matches a known email pattern. This approach provides content agnostic protection and blocks spam without looking at any of the actual message content.
