SpamSieve: Kills Spam Dead

Ah, RAID commercials of years gone by... *sigh*

Anyway, where was I? Oh, yes: SpamSieve, my spam filter of choice, has been updated today to version 2.3.2. Get it here. It'll cost you $25, but if you use Apple Mail, Emailer, Entourage, Outlook Express, Eudora 5.2 or later, Mailsmith, GyazMail 1.2, or PowerMail, SpamSieve will nicely keep all of those wonderful viagra and my rich uncle died and we need you to get the money emails out of your inbox and nicely stored in a Spam box. Select all. Bounce. Oh, yeah.

I have a FreeBSD mail server down my basement, it runs PostFix, SpamAssassin, RAV and ClamAV. 99% (or more) of spam is being filtered. One false negative per week or less.

SpamAssassin gives you the same functionality, and it's free. Plus, there are Mac OS X-specific instructions for installing it. The bas news is that it's a bitch to install. I don't run it on my Mac; instead, I use a Linux box in my basement as my mail server, and I have SpamAssassin installed on there. I filter all my spam to a separate "spam" mailbox, and usually end up with 99% of spam going there. I have roughly one piece of spam every two days make it through to my main mailbox, while hundreds of spams are flushed down the tubes.
