Hi everyone

I just wanted to share with you a tale...

One of the things that's most appealing to me about switching away from 
Emailer is the automatic spam filtering on new-gen email clients. Well 
when I saw that Spam Sieve added true bayesian filtering to Emailer, man 
I jumped on it!

http://www.c-command.com/spamsieve/

Michael Tsai wrote an app and custom AppleScripts to work with Emailer, 
Entourage, Eudora 5.2, Mailsmith, and PowerMail. As to be expected, some 
apps integrate with it a little better than others.

Turns out it has a few problems with Emailer. For some reason, when 
attempting to add messages, the Corpus (which stores the filtering 
criteria) wouldn't grow. The scripts would run, and SpamSieve would mark 
messages if it thought they were spam, but it wasn't very accurate 
because I couldn't train it with enough messages to guarantee accuracy.

So I emailed Michael Tsai (the developer) about the problem. He never 
took more than a day to get back to me during this whole process! 
Absolutely awesome support. I would try his suggestions, and send new 
results. He wrote a test version of a script to enable me to send him 
messages. Then I sent him copies of my database and Corpus. Within a few 
days of contact, he had solved the problem and sent me a beta version!!

So if anyone's been looking for a spam filter and another reason to keep 
Emailer for awhile longer, this is a great one. Check out SpamSieve...and 
don't forget to register it. :-)

Michael
