Internet Nebraska has partnered with Postini to provide you the latest tools to prevent viruses and junk email from reaching your computer.

For a $1 monthly fee* per email account, Internet Nebraska will set your mail up to be filtered by Postini for both spam and viruses. We're very excited to offer this safe, effective, user-configurable solution to reducing the amount of undesirable mail you receive.

With this service, email that appears to be junk or virus-infected is redirected to a password-protected online Message Center where you can review and retrieve selected messages if you wish. You will be able to set the level of restrictiveness, specify what kinds of subject matter you want filtered, and specify senders who are always or never filtered.

You can even "disinfect" mail that has been "quarantined" because it appears to contain a virus, and then receive only the safe part of that mail.

It is important to say that we at Internet Nebraska do not share information about our customers with Postini or anyone else, except when legally required by authorized law-enforcement officials. If you subscribe to this service, Postini will never know anything about you, not even your real name. Postini services are private and secure. The junk email and virus protection is an automated process. Nobody will read your mail. Your email is not censored. YOU control the 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, based on your personal preferences. For exmple, you can have mail leniently or aggressively blocked based on subject matter, including "get-rich-quick" and "adult" themes.
• 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 with it.
• 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.
