Anti-spam approachNot separately documented as a technical methodology beyond standard server-side mail filtering; the Privacy Statement discloses that email server logs (sender/recipient addresses, connecting IPs) are retained for 48 hours to prevent brute-force attacks and aid debugging, and specifies that message content is not read except for service operation, troubleshooting, or suspected Terms of Service violations.Incoming and outgoing messages are automatically analysed by anti-spam, anti-virus and anti-abuse checking routines; the provider's own security-analysis documentation states this applies at the transport layer and that OpenPGP-encrypted message bodies are never visible to the server.
