Aggressive Spam Defense 2.1 |

Friday, 11 February 2005 |
Based on new techniques and technology, Aggressive Spam Defense can keep your inbox clean by automatically deleting unsolicited emails even before you see them.
The core of Aggressive Spam Defense is based on spam indexes. It simply means that if an email has certain characteristics - such as a specific phrase, sender-address, attachment, etc. - each of them can add a configurable spam-index to that email. They are then added up, and if the sum is over the spam-threshold, the email is treated as spam.
A huge percentage of spam will be detected right after installation. Still it allows you to easily adapt it to the particular type of email that you receive. You can fiddle with knobs and sliders if you want to.
In addition you have a Safe preview built in. This lets you safely read the email from within Aggressive Spam Defense. If the email should contains a virus, your computer will not be infected. And those 'call home' emails that are so frequently used by spammers will be prevented from doing just that.
