Hello Keith

On 04 June 2002 at 13:12:51 -0400 (which was 18:12 where I live) Keith
Hanlon emanated these words of wisdom

 I've been using TB for about a week now and I just love it. I downloaded
 as many Email apps as I could find and this was clearly the best. I was a
 Eudora user for years, but they want people to pay for Beta versions, and
 there's been a Windows 2000 bug that they don't want to fix. Oh well,
 their loss...

 My question: I've been using Mailwasher this week and I really like
 it. Is there an alternative that some of you guys would recommend?
 Maybe some filters or something?

either

(1) Filters go to http://download.work4theweb.com/Personal/ and look for a
file called spam.zip. I think that there are instructions in there, and I
can not remember who I got it from, so if they would like to own up!!

or

(2) SpamPal from http://www.twinlobber.org.uk/spampal/

It all depends on your needs.

Hello Keith Hanlon,

In Reference to your Posting on Tuesday, June 04 2002 at 08:24 AM PDT,

 My question: I've been using Mailwasher this week and I really like 
 it. Is there an alternative that some of you guys would recommend? 
 Maybe some filters or something?

Keith, if you want your question answered then it is best to start a new
thread with a new subject heading, rather than simply replying to an
existing thread and 'then' changing the subject. Your message is now
buried within an existing thread that many may have decided not to read...
and thereby miss your new subject.

The filters are very powerful, and if configured correctly can
probably achieve what u want.

  Just curious...If you really like it, why are you looking for an
  alternative?

  Mailwasher also lets you easily set up filters. I have them set up for
  all my mailing lists so that messages to those lists are not flagged as
  spam. This is necessary because Spamcop, especially, has blacklisted so
  many domains (even Marck's, for example!).

  I've reached the point where MailWasher finds almost all the spam and I
  get very few false positives now.

Ah, I should have supplied a link:  http://www.mailwasher.net/

It allows you to remove emails from the server before downloading 
them. It identifies spam (and possibly spam) for you. It will also 
send a bounce-back to the offending emails.

I found your email by coincidence under the NOD32 thread, whcih I
don't really follow.

Anyway, what  does Mailwasher do? I don't know it. Any URL?

Sometimes there are better programs and I don't know anything about 
them. I had no idea TB existed until I started asking around, 
checking out Google, CNet, etc.

Sounds like MW might be just fine for me... but you never know!

  Fair enought.

  MailWasher and SpamPal (which I've seen recommended but haven't tried)
  take quite different approaches to the problem. Feel free to try them
  both and let us know what you think!
