(To work with the program’s address lists and rules or its corpus-the collection of words the Bayesian filter uses to identify spam-you will need to switch to the SpamSieve application.) SpamSieve is easily trained, and if you want to go beyond the basics and configure your own filters or edit your black- and whitelists, it allows you to do so without a lot of bother. ![]() I like the fact that SpamSieve mostly works within my e-mail client so I rarely need to muck with a separate application or risk losing e-mail in transit between a spam utility and my e-mail software. It also supports both POP and IMAP e-mail accounts. If you’ve got a few hundred spam and good messages archived in your e-mail client, this helps SpamSieve become acceptably accurate within a matter of minutes rather than the days it can take to train other programs. Unlike other spam utilities I’ve used, SpamSieve lets you train it with groups of selected spam and good e-mail. SpamSieve looks for this header entry and gives messages that include it favorable treatment. Members of the Habeas Safelist can then embed their membership in the headers of e-mail messages they send. This is a service that requires members to pass a rigorous audit of “best practices” to ensure that their services aren’t used for spamming. ![]() SpamSieve employs a form of Bayesian filtering and can use the Habeas Safelist. You can add, subtract, and edit entries in these lists as well as create rules within them. Entries in your Mail, Eudora, or Entourage address book are automatically entered in the whitelist, as are the contacts for mail you accept. It has a blacklist (called a blocklist in the program) as well as a whitelist-mark a message as spam and the sender is sent to the blocklist. Like other spam utilities, SpamSieve uses a variety of techniques for sorting the good mail from bad. ![]()
