SpamPal - A FREE Spam Filter For Outlook Express


SpamPal sits between your mail server and your mail client, (like a proxy) checking your incoming mail and tagging messages it believes to be spam (more detail on this later), then whatever rule you set up in your mail client, it will move all spam tagged emails to a folder of your choice, kept away from the main Inbox.

SpamPal sits between your mail server and your mail client, (like a
proxy) checking your incoming mail and tagging messages it believes to
be spam (more detail on this later), then whatever rule you set up in
your mail client, it will move all spam tagged emails to a folder of
your choice, kept away from the main Inbox. 


It will never attempt to delete spam email (which some users don't
like in the case of an email mistakenly marked as spam).


SpamPal Features



     


  • Check your mail against the freely-usable DNSBL lists (aka
    "blocking lists") of your choice.

  • The list of available DNSBL services is automatically updated,
    so new DNSBL lists can be used as they appear!

  • Whitelist the email addresses of your friends and family
    so that mail from them will never be tagged as spam!

  • Don't agree with a listing in a DNSBL list? You can whitelist
    entire netblocks so you'll never be troubled by that listing again!

  • Do you think part of the Internet should be blocked that isn't
    in a DNSBL list? Add it to the local blacklist and all mail
    from it will be tagged as spam! You can blacklist email addresses or
    entire netblocks!

  • People and mailservers with whom you correspond frequently are
    Automatically Whitelisted - without you having to lift a
    finger!

  • More than one mailbox? Don't worry, SpamPal supports multiple
    POP3 servers
    .

  • Supports APOP authentication!

  • Unobtrusive! Once installed, SpamPal sits in your system
    tray and you can forget all about it - except spam won't be causing
    you so much trouble!

  • Multi-language support! Use SpamPal in English, German
    French, Italian or Russian

  • Subject Line Tagging. As well as its special header,
    SpamPal can put "**SPAM**" in the subject of spam messages.

  • And if all this isn't enough, you can extend SpamPal with
    third-party Plug-ins!

  • SpamPal will not be able to detect all of your spam. However, I
    think it will detect enough to make a considerable difference!
