SpamAssassin for Win32 3.1.7 description
SpamAssassin is one of the best spam filters and it is also free. However, it is written on Perl and runs usually on corporate UNIX servers.
The early versions of SpamAssassin did excellent job killing spam, but they just could not run on Win32 systems. The first successful attempt to port SpamAssassin to Microsoft Windows family was made by Dan McDonald, who wrote a pop3proxy script which was acting as a proxy between the mail client and the POP3 server.
Further work on this script lead to the release of a free spam filter SAproxy and then commercial SAproxy Pro. Soon after the release in 2003, Consumer Reports declared SAproxy the best personal anti-spam solution for Windows. However, after Yahoo! acquired Stata Labs at the end of 2004, they announced that SAproxy was discontinued.
I have managed to adapt the free SAproxy to work with the latest versions of SpamAssassin, DCC, and Razor. The result, SpamAssassin POP3 Proxy for Win32, is available for download. The spam filter stands between your e-mail reader and the POP3 (incoming) mail server. It can:
- study the message and check whether it matches patterns common for spam;
- contact online "blacklists" (DNSBL) to verify whether the message has arrived from a known spam source;
- contact online databases DCC and Razor (Cloudmark) which collect the "fingerprints" of millions of known spam messages;
- automatically learn how to tell spam from non-spam (statistical analysis);
- automatically whitelist frequent senders;
- easily configure basic settings with the help of a user-friendly interface;
- support custom rules (although that would require reading SpamAssassin documentation).
