Just Say No To Spam: Pocket SpamFilter Beta Released
Posted by Jason Dunn in "SOFTWARE" @ 03:00 PM
"Pocket SpamFilter is the first PPC 2002/2003 application that helps you keep your email account free of spam. Reduce your bandwidth usage by inspecting your email account before downloading. Features:
• Support for unlimited number of POP3 email accounts
• Download info only, headers, headers + lines or complete message body
• Delete emails without downloading them
• Powerful and simple filter creation
• Filter on any part of message (supports string search, regular expression and wildcards)
• Filter by friends/spammers emails or domains
• Filter by senders country
• Hundreds of predefined filters and blacklisted domains included"
I'm just dying to know if this works, because I get an enormous amount of spam to almost all of my email accounts. Kudos to PocketPCSoft.com for releasing an application like this, but I'm not convinced that blacklist filtering will be effective enough. I'm interested to read what you think about this!
