  • Patent number: 8271603
    Abstract: A system and method for diminishing false positive classifications of unsolicited electronic-mail is disclosed. An electronic-mail message is received whereby a set of message classifiers are applied the message. One or more signatures indicative of unsolicited electronic-mail based on at least the application of the aforementioned classifiers is generated. The one or more signatures are applied to subsequently incoming electronic-mail messages whereby unsolicited electronic-mail may be more accurately identified and false positive identification of normal electronic-mail messages are reduced.
