I used this for a while while it was free but when they changed it to a annual fee, i dropped it....also dropped outlook as well. Check out Postbox and Emclient...Much better choice and better spam monitoring. Also ther is Clyton, a good client for spam but still missing some necessary features like a integrated Calendar...and a few others...

Redundant.

Outlook 2003's built-in spam filtering does a very efficient and dependable job on filtering spam, especially if you install the filter updates via Microsoft Update each month. It's also free and customizable.

This shareware on the other hand, costs $25 after the trial is about as reliable as Outlooks, and doesn't seem to have the options that Outlooks' native filter has.

Hmmm Outlook 2003 spam filter or a real spam filter... Gee Think I'll go with a real spam filter... Outlook's is very basic an incapable of filtering out most spam now bombarding my mailbox.

Outlook has its own built in spam detection now, and it's really quite effective. It has white lists, black lists, levels of detection etc.... this software is on its way to total "waste" so getting it is pointless, and paying for it, is stupid.
Especially since the screen capture shows outlook 2003, and Microsoft releases detection updates periodically.

Avoid this one like the plague...

well, at the time i reviewed it, it was free. it wasn't until recently that they decided to make it shareware not freeware.

SpamNet by Cloudmark is NOT free anymore. Free is good. $$ is not.

After I installed Spam Bully and chose "Check inbox", it downloaded my messages and automatically marked email as spam (wrongly!!) and sent out "please confirm you're not a spammer by typing the password" to some business contacts! This is quite painful.

They should make the default setting to NOT send these
messages automatically or at least have a confirm question!

I'd like a standalone version much more than an Outlook plugin, because it would be able to act as a "simple" pop3 checker. The program does look very promising (compared to SpamKiller and Mailwasher), but I think there are still quite some quirks to get rid of. Easier adding of email addresses to white and black lists would be nice too.
