# CleanTalk Anti Spam API

For spam prevention on the ticket creation page and also for imap accounts and incoming mail, Maian Support utilises the CleanTalk anti spam API. CleanTalk does not require users to enter codes or complete captcha's as checks are done in the background based on what the visitor entered for the ticket. You can easily block entire countries from accessing your system to help reduce spam and malware attacks.
Sign up for a CleanTalk account here.
When enabled, only the initial ticket is checked for spam. Once accepted, all replies will also be accepted. This makes the system more reliable and prevents tickets getting disrupted with unnecessary blocks.

Enable in Maian Support

In the admin menu go to "Settings & Tools > Mail Settings". Select the "CleanTalk API & Spam" tab.
Create a free CleanTalk account and enter your API key on the settings page. More info here.
