American InfoMetrics Provides Junk Email and Virus Protection from Postini

American InfoMetrics has partnered with Postini to provide you the latest tools to prevent dangerous viruses and annoying junk email from reaching your computer. American InfoMetrics will provide this option as part of our new aiPrime service initiative and commitment to bring you the best Internet services available. This requires no new software for your computer.

After your service is activated you will be sent an activation email with instructions on how to log in to your password-protected Message Center (this is where filtered e-mail, i.e. spam, will be kept).

The Postini services are private and secure. The junk email and virus protection is an automated process. Nobody has access to your email except you. Nobody will read your email. Your email is not censored, YOU control the filter settings.

Here is a brief overview of the Postini service:

  • Your email passes through Postini's automated filters that detect suspected junk email and viruses.
  • Suspicious email is directed to your personal, web-based, password-protected Message Center (it does not arrive at your computer's in box). Think of this as a quarantine area. In your Message Center you can read the quarantined email online, delete it, or deliver (forward) it to your in box.
  • Initially you should visit your Message Center often because Postini "remembers and learns" from your interaction. As time goes on you will be able to rely on Postini's periodic notifications of your Message Center activity.
  • Postini lets you "block" senders; meaning email from them will always be filtered. Or you can "approve" senders; meaning their email will always be delivered.
  • This service is completely controlled by you.

When your service is activated you will be sent explicit instructions on how to access your Message Center and how to get the most out of your junk email and virus protection.

*NOTE: Virus protection cannot be considered complete without current anti-virus software resident on the computer receiving your e-mail. EVEN THEN, PROTECTION CANNOT BE GUARANTEED.
