Popfile works by sitting between TB & the incoming email server - when you check an account in TB, it goes through Popfile (but doesn't make any noticeable difference to the download time). It looks for keywords in your emails, & sorts them into "buckets" depending on the keywords it finds. You define the buckets - eg you may have one for friends, one for business, one for email lists & one for spam. You can have Popfile label emails which get sorted to a particular bucket if you want (this is variable by bucket). For example if you set labelling for the Spam bucket, you can then - in TB - filter everything with that label straight to Trash, or to a specific folder which you can check periodically. If Popfile sorts an email wrongly, you tell it so, & it learns as it goes along. I was pleasantly surprised by the level of accuracy it achieved very quickly :-) Also free, which is always a good thing (well, okay, thinking of MS email clients, *usually* a good thing <G>) -- Deborah ________________________________________________ Current version is 1.62 | "Using TBUDL" information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
