SpamPal sits between your email program and your mailbox, checking your email as you retrieve it. Any email messages that it considers to be spam will be "tagged" with a special header; you simply configure your email client to filter anything with this header into a separate folder and your spam won't be mixed up with the rest of your email anymore.

    Yes, Bayesian sucks. But fortunately, SpamPal doesn't need it.

    This has been absolutely wonderful anti-spam software for me, and I have been using it for well over a year. The accuracy is good--SpamPal hardly ever misses spam, and does a pretty good job not classifying legit email as spam (though the public DNSBL servers do wrongly classify it sometimes).

    I use and recommend the HTMLModfy, MX Lookup, URLBody, and RegExFilter plugins (but especially the RegExFilter plugin!).

    SpamPal is great, but Bayesian filtering does suck. Spammers defeated Bayesian looong ago.

    Bayesian filtering does NOT "suck". When used intelligently it's a great first line of defense. SpamPal is a great product at a fantastic price. I wish it was available as an outlook plugin though..
