Do not reply to this message
Dear Customer,
Our robot has fixed an abnormal activity from your IP address on sending e-mails.
Probably it is connected with the last epidemic of a worm which does not have patches at the moment.
We recommend you to install a firewall module and it will stop e-mail sending. Otherwise your account will be blocked until you do not eliminate malfunction.
Customer support center robot
---cut---
We advise customers to immediately delete the e-mail and the attachment if they happen to receive such e-mails. Customers are advised not to open the file attachment.

Server Level Spam Filtering and Tagging on Windows Virtual Servers
We are introducing spam filtering feature on our Windows virtual servers as an
enhancement to our email services on Windows.
This new spam filtering feature is utilizing the best open source spam fighting
solution, spamassassin
as the content filtering engine.
Mails below certain size will be sent for analysis to our central spamassassin
servers and a score
will be given to each mail. We are setting two server level score thresholds,
a low and a high.
For a mail with score above the high threshold, it would be classified as
definite spam and mail server will reject it.
For a mail with score between low and high threshold, it will be tagged as
SUSPECTED spam on the subject line.
Mails with score lower than the low threshold will be passed without alteration.
The high threshod is set at a number that a mail with that kind of spam score
would definitely be a spam and
the probability of false classification at the high score threshold is very very small.
The system only subjects incoming mails from external or non-authenticated
source for spam filtering.
If you are sending out email using your Outlook email client and using SMTP
authentication,
your email will not be subjected to spam filtering.
As spam filtering is not a 100% exact science, there are possibilites that
mails may be wrongly tagged or
rejected. If you encounter issue related to this, please log a case with our
support team and we will
see how we can help you to resolve it.

Although C2C and APCN2 are designed for redundancy, re-routing of traffic is not possible due to the double failures on these two cable systems.
At the moment, our upstream providers in China and Hong Kong are still working round-the-clock on the recovery process.
Update on 29 December 2006, 10:00hrs: Our upstream providers in Hong Kong and China have managed to re-route some of the affected traffic to other alternative routes. Overseas customers might experience better connectivity to their servers hosted in Hong Kong and China compared to yesterday. However, some latency and packet losses are still expected.
