Abstract: An apparatus is provided for implementation of a system for screening electronic mail messages. The apparatus may receive an electronic mail message, and scan the electronic mail message for a uniform resource identifier (URI) of an Internet resource embedded therein. In an instance in which a URI is embedded in the electronic mail message, the apparatus may query a WHOIS server for a created date of the Internet resource. In this regard, the WHOIS server may be queried using a domain name of the Internet resource included in the URI. And the apparatus may determine an age of the Internet resource from the created date, and perform a remedial action in an instance in which the age of the Internet resource is less than a threshold age.
