SpamWeed is an email filtering software that uses pre-trained Bayesian learning and a Whitelist Mode to prevent spam and viruses from reaching your inbox. It supports multiple email clients including Outlook, Thunderbird, Eudora, and Incredimail.
One of the standout features of SpamWeed is its pre-trained learning filter. The software's refined Bayesian filter is intelligent, enabling it to distinguish between good mail and spam with high accuracy. This spam filter is pre-trained, making it incredibly effective right out of the box. SpamWeed may initially make a few mistakes, but if it blocks a good email, you can simply move it to the "good mail box," and the software will learn and improve future filtering. With its refined algorithm, SpamWeed is sensitive to training, and usually within just a few days of use, it can work entirely to your satisfaction.
Another compelling feature is SpamWeed's Sole Whitelist Mode. It allows you to only receive emails from your whitelist contacts while blocking all other emails. You can accomplish this by turning on "Only Receive Emails from Whitelisted Senders."
With SpamWeed, spam is stopped before it is delivered to your inbox. The software works as a POP3 proxy, scanning and analyzing all incoming messages before delivering only good mail to your inbox. Junk mail is left in the SpamWeed Junk Mail folder, which gives you the satisfaction of a clean inbox.
Finally, SpamWeed protects against hazardous email viruses. The software identifies emails that contain viruses, even if they are from your friends, and successfully eliminates over 99% of Email viruses, rendering them unexecutable. The likelihood of your computer becoming infected by viruses is significantly reduced with SpamWeed. Additionally, SpamWeed protects email privacy by detecting and automatically removing all email tracking and privacy bugs often found in spam messages.
