Avoid Spam mail with Spamihilator Bayesian and DCC Filters


Spamihilator works between your E-Mail client and the Internet and examines every incoming E-Mail. Useless spam mails (Junk) will be filtered out. This process runs completely in the background. The Bayesian Filter uses the rules of Thomas Bayes (English mathematician, 18th century) and calculates a certain Spam-Probability for every E-Mail.

You can train this filter, so the recognition rate will continuously increase. In addition Spamihilator uses a Word-Filter, that searches messages for known keywords. The Spam Word Filter supports Regular Expressions. The DCC-Filter can connect with the DCC Network to recognize unsolicited bulk mail.

Spamihilator is able to receive e-mails from POP3 and IMAP accounts, and it supports Cross-Protocolling.

Main Email clients in our days do a fine job in recognising spam mail, which makes Spamihilator rather obsolete. However, spam remains a problem, because you have to browse in case that you find some wrongly placed there legitimate message. Here is how I defeated spammers once and for all!
