Optimal Design of Hierarchical Spam Filtering Method Based on Greylisting

Abstract:

With the continuous development of network technology, the proliferation of spam has become a more horrible threat to normal e-mail service than ever before. Although current spam filtration technologies may block some obvious spams, they still fail to recognize large numbers of tricky ones. Therefore, we propose a novel hierarchical spam filtering method called CFBG grounded on Graylisting and use three layers of well-connected modified filtration technologies to fill up those disadvantages of past filtration technologies. The conclusive result of our experiments shows that the new method can provide more powerful filtration and less misjudgment rate reliably.
