Spamihilator 0.9.9.53 - 2.07MB (Freeware)

Description:

Spamihilator works between your E-Mail client and the Internet and examines every incoming E-Mail. Useless spam mails (Junk) will be filtered out. This process runs completely in the background.
The Learning Filter (Bayesian Filter) uses the rules of Thomas Bayes (English mathematician, 18th century) and calculates a certain Spam-Probability for every E-Mail. You can train this filter! So it will know your messages even better than you. Hence the recognition rate will continuously increase.
In addition Spamihilator uses a Word-Filter, that searches messages for known keywords. User-defined words and regular expression can be added.
Of course, Spamihilator supports Plugins. These useful additional filters protect your system against annoying spam mails.
The program works with almost every E-Mail client, such as Outlook 2000/XP/2003/Express, Eudora, Mozilla Thunderbird, IncrediMail, Pegasus Mail, Phoenix Mail, Opera, etc…

Spam Recognition

The Learning Filter recognizes more than 98% of all incoming spam mails. Use the Training Area, to increase the recognition rate continuously.
You can also specify certain words, that often appear in spam mails. The Spam-Word-Filter will look for these words.(1)
There’s yet another highlight: The new Link Filter searches incoming messages for links to spam websites.
Finally, Spamihilator contains the DCC-Filter which connects with the DCC Network to recognize unsolicited bulk mail.
Install Plugins to increase Spamihilator’s recognition rate even more! Plugins add new features and filters to the program.

(1) The Spam Word Filter even supports Regular Expressions.

Support of POP3 and IMAP accounts

Since version 0.9.9 Spamihilator is able to receive e-mails from POP3 and IMAP accounts!
Furthermore the new version supports Cross-Protocolling. Hence, it is possible to receive e-mails from IMAP accounts with an e-mail client, that supports only POP3, and vice versa (see Cross-Protocolling Setup)

Secure Connections (2)

Spamihilator is able to establish secure connections over SSL/TLS (3). The communication between Spamihilator and the mail server will be encrypted, so no one can read your e-mails or spy out your passwords.

(2) Please note: You cannot use this feature unless your mail server also supports secure connections over SSL/TLS.
(3) This product includes software developed by the OpenSSL Project for use in the OpenSSL Toolkit. (http://www.openssl.org).

Lists of Senders

Add your buddys’ mail addresses to the List of Friends. Spamihilator will render all messages from these senders to your mail client.
Messages from senders, which are listed on the List of Blocked senders, will always be blocked. Spamihilator is even able to delete such messages directly on the mail server without downloading them! (optional)

Separate Spam and Non-Spam!

All recognized spam mails will be saved to the Spamihilator Recycle Bin. They will not be rendered to your mail client. Ideally you don’t even have to check the Recycle Bin, so a best possible separation between Spam and Non-Spam can be achieved!
Of course, you can restore messages from the Recycle Bin.
Use the Training Area to teach Spamihilator. It will learn which mails are Spam and which are not. It will become better and better! After a few days of training the recognition rate will be at least 98%!

Pegasus Mail 4.52 - 9.24MB (Freeware)

Description:

Pegasus Mail is an e-mail client that runs on computers using Microsoft Windows: by client, we mean that it interacts directly with the user, allowing mail to be sent, read, filed, printed and otherwise manipulated through a graphical interface. Probably one of the most feature-rich mail clients available, most users say that they find the program easy to use despite its richness. Small and fast, Pegasus Mail can be left running permanently on the workstation and includes powerful tools to notify the user when new mail arrives.

Pegasus Mail can run on single Windows computers, or local area networks - it has special support for Novell NetWare LANs that allow it to operate intuitively and with almost no maintenance. The program also supports multiple users on a single computer. Versions are available for both 32-bit Windows (Windows 98, NT4, 2000, XP and Vista) and 16-bit Windows (any version of Windows 3.1 or later). Pegasus Mail can act as a complete internal mail system on its own without needing further servers or components: it can send and receive Internet mail on its own using standard protocols (SMTP, IMAP and POP3). By adding our Mercury Mail Transport System as a mail server, you can provide fully-integrated centralized Internet e-mail services and mailing list management for your Pegasus Mail users.

Pegasus Mail for Windows - Features

Better, Smarter, Easier

• 
  
  

  New & Improved Design

  IncrediMail 2 introduces a better, more attractive and user-friendly design. We made the main application windows easier to use by enlarging the buttons, and reorganized the menus so that more relevant options are easily accessible. Mail folders can now be customized to your color of choice. The email list window and preview pane now feature a new design that makes browsing through your email easier and more productive. Plus, for your convenience, a direct button to the Gallery was added to the main taskbar.

Search results are shown as quickly as you type - It takes less than a second for IncrediMail 2 to search through 10,000’s of emails. Also, the terms you are searching for are conveniently highlighted. Advanced search has been upgraded with snappier performance, and is now a more powerful tool than before. FastSearch also includes “Search Filters”, a new tool allowing you to filter emails and attachments including Images, Videos, Word documents, Power Point documents, and many more file types.

  Attachments

  Tired of clicking on each email to find out what attachments it contains? A preview of the attachments may be seen by rolling over the attachment icons in the email list window. In addition, the email preview pane includes a designated area for attachment previews, providing a quick glance of the attachment file type you received, may it be a photo, video, Word document, or any other file. Plus, an attachment can be quickly saved to the desktop at a click of a button, directly from the attachment preview pane.

Fun 2.0

  New Skins

  IncrediMail 2 Skins have a slick fresh look. Just see for yourself.
  VERY IMPORTANT NOTE for IncrediMail Xe users:
  Skins that are compatible with IncrediMail Xe are NOT compatible with IncrediMail 2. This is due to significant user-interface changes that were required in the development of IncrediMail 2. IncrediMail Xe Premium users that will upgrade from IncrediMail Xe to IncrediMail 2 will lose access to all previous Skins. Our Creative Team is working hard to transform older Skins into the new IncrediMail 2 Skin format, and also creating new even more exciting Skins to be downloaded from our Online Gallery.

  Better handling of folders with large amounts of emails

  Those familiar with IncrediMail Xe may recall that it normally takes 2-3 seconds to load folders containing 1000’s of emails. IncrediMail 2 puts an end to this delay, by introducing the fastest loading time possible. It now takes less than a second to load a folder filled with 20,000 emails!
