AbstractCommunication via email could have been more reliable if there were no unsolicited commercial email so-called spam. Unwanted advertisement and materials attached with spam have cost time and money of both normal user and business. This study demonstrates an efficient, intelligent way of spam filtering based on Naive Bayes classifier to detect spam at the server level. The filter tailors itself to each individual user by enabling correction for misclassified emails to make a better result. The filter prototype is installed on the mail server to demonstrate real usage scenario. After implementing it, email users would notice an enormously decreased amount of spam in a short time.
