Hello Simon, SF> Mailwasher [4.1.7.5] not only checks the mail on the server [POP SF> or IMAP] but also has White/Blacklist, Bayesian SF> Filtering/Learning, Blacklist (e.g. sbl-xbl.spamhaus.org) checking SF> and lastly their own Spam Altert service titled "First Alert" SF> which is a �3.50 (UK Pounds)a year subscription service contianing SF> details of known and identified Spam.
SF> I've had superb 99.9% results with K9, but, I'm running Mailwasher SF> right now and can vouch for it's Spam detection abilities too.... And I can second that. It's worth the money for the First Alert system alone where thousands of users are reporting spam back to a central server. The upshot is that most of the spam I get is already marked "Known Spam" and deleted before it even gets to the Bat. Using Mailwasher, hardly any spam at all gets through and most of it is marked deletion when it arrives in Mailwasher. It's much more effective, as far as I'm concerned, than filtering using the Bat. -- Best regards, Mike ________________________________________________ Current version is 2.12.00 | 'Using TBUDL' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
