Protect Your Mail Client Against Spam Emails With Spamihilator

Tired of spam emails in your mail client? Want to get rid of spam emails so you can easily focus on what’s more important? Try Spamihilator. It is an easy to configure, yet comprehensive, desktop application for filtering out spam mails from mail clients such as MS Outlook, Eudora, Mozilla Thunderbird, IncrediMail, Pegasus Mail etc. It works by scanning incoming emails on your mail client and filters junk emails, while running in the background. The application’s Learning Filter (Bayesian Filter) calculates spam based on it’s own spam identification mechanism, as well as user-defined filters based on words and regular expressions. This method can be used to progressively reduce the amount of junk mail delivered to your mail client by training Spamihilator to completely filter out spam mails.

Setting up Spamihilator is easily done by the first run configuration wizard. It will automatically detect all installed mail clients on your system, and all you have to do is select a mail client from the list and click Next to continue.
