Post Description
SpamSieve gives you back your inbox by bringing powerful Bayesian spam filtering to popular e-mail clients.
It learns what your spam looks like, so it can block nearly all of it. It looks at your address book and learns what your good messages look like, so it won't confuse them with spam. Other spam filters get worse over time as spammers adapt to their rules; SpamSieve actually gets better over time as you train it with more messages. SpamSieve doesn't delete any messages--it only marks them in your e-mail client--so you'll never lose any mail. SpamSieve works with any number of mail accounts, of whatever types are supported by your e-mail software (e.g. POP, IMAP, Exchange, Hotmail, AOL).
What's New
Version 2.9.2:
Improved compatibility with the forthcoming OS X 10.8 Mountain Lion.
The recommended condition for the Apple Mail rule is now Every Message rather than Message Type Is Mail. SpamSieve will auto-update your rules at launch on OS X 10.7 if Mail is running.
SpamSieve is better at detecting a certain type of tricky spam message.
Worked around an OS bug that prevented SpamSieve from properly analyzing some message attachments.
False negative files now have the .eml extension so that they work with Quick Look, etc.
The Setting Up a Spam Filtering Drone section of the manual has been updated with simpler instructions for Apple Mail and new instructions for setting up a drone using Microsoft Outlook 2011.
Added the Using a Spam Mailbox on the Server section of the manual (for Apple Mail).
Updated various graphics for retina displays.
If the Apple Mail plug-in cannot be installed due to a folder ownership problem, SpamSieve will now ask for an administrator password to try to fix the folder for you.
Reverted to version 1.2.3 of the Growl SDK to avoid problems with high CPU usage, internal errors, and crashes.
Improved SpamSieve's reporting of unexpected errors as well as script errors from Apple Mail.
SpamSieve no longer responds at all to certain invalid commands. This should work around an OS bug that could lead to crashes.
The crash reporter can now make recommendations for you based on the contents of the crash log.
Added a link to the forum in the Help menu.
