Well I’ve only had the software installed on this machine for an hour.
However, I must say that I am VERY impressed. I just returned from vacation and
I had over 300 emails waiting for me; 90% of them were spam. I installed your
software using the defaults and it caught almost every piece of spam!

This is the best chunk of code I’ve run in a long time!!! To go from 280 – 320
emails every morning to 22 this morning is as good as it can get!!! Easy to install,
easy to use… Thanks!

Thanks. It's the best/easiest/most accurate Bayesian filter I've seen! Way to
go!

I am not too big a fan of Spam sorting programs. I have never yet been convinced
that the Delete button has been superseded yet. But InBoxer, aside from having
a quite witty name, could manage just that. InBoxer integrates with Microsoft
Outlook (currently it does not work with Outlook Express or Win95) and sorts "spam" into
two categories; "Blocked" and "Review". The review function
is what I feel is the strength of InBoxer. Other Spam program often just move
all "Spam" to the bin, or to a single folder. This for me means that
I check all of the "spam" as I often have found wanted EMails marked
for destruction. In addition, while I used InBoxer nothing was mis-sorted, so
I suspect after a while I would feel confident to start trusting the InBoxer "Blocked" category,
and just check the "Review". Furthermore, InBoxer is largely transparent
in operation once installed, unlike other programs that ask for your decision
for what is spam and is not. It also
uses an internal algorithm to detect Spam, and it monitors what you delete and
keep. Given time, this method is supposed to become more in tune with your wanted
EMail.

Most of the best spam filters available today are Bayesian filters (it's easy
to see why), and InBoxer is no exception. Give InBoxer a good trainer such as
yourself, and it performs well, knocking out spam in spite of sidesteps and uppercuts
(sports metaphors hardly ever sound good, do they?).
InBoxer implements great Bayesian spam filtering in an intelligent and easy to
use way. It's just a pity that it only supports Outlook. (Windows)

InBoxer is a snap to install, easy to configure (multiple pop3 and imap accounts
are easy, exchange works pretty well too, hotmail doesn't work yet). InBoxer
is based on an open source project (spambayes), but is supported full time by
an engineering team. Accuracy is high, and it adapts to your own definition of
spam over time. Memory usage is several megabytes, but it's a small burden if
you are already committed to Outlook. I could wish they support Outlook Express
or Eudora. You might ask them when (or if) that will happen. But for OL2000+
users, this is the best spam filter I've seen yet.

" It Works!"
It has been 100% accurate with the 40-50 SPAM messages I get a day. Those who
say it doesn't work probably didn't "train" their install. I saved
a couple of weeks worth of SPAM messages to train it on and it has rocked ever
since. It most definitely gets better the more you use it and I would question
the claims that it just stops working. The GUI needs to be improved to make it
more user friendly, but it definitely works.

"Bayesian filtering is best"
I've beta tested Inboxer and the earlier open source product. This is one of
the best software packages I have ever used based on its impact on improving
my life by accurately filtering out spam. I am impressed at how well Bayesian
filtering predicts spam. If you train it well on a large selection of your spam
messages in one folder and ham messages (good email) in other folders it is amazing
how much little additional training is needed. I especially like the fact that
it has misclassified very few of my ham messages as spam. The Inboxer version
adds a much more intuitive user interface and white and black listing support.
For corporate use Inboxer is the way to go. I suggest you try it out yourself.
This is the only software product that I have given such a good review.

"
Best solution I have used to combat spam"
I have tried a number of solutions.. mostly the list type of solutions. They
simply do not keep up with the marketeers. This product, as it learns, stops
them cold at the door to my inbox. Now I get just an occasional spam and so far
none marked as spam that was actually ham. Try it, buy it.. you will be impressed.

"Good Anti-Spam Program."
I have been with Inboxer since the early beta and enjoy the features and the
new filtering technoligy. It was doing a just ok job. But after tweaking it (The
slider bars for the % chance of spam or un-known) and it catches even more, I
assume after a few more tweaks it will be purring. Much better than iHateSpam.
Michael McKenna
"This product is all you need"
I was wasting hours a week wading through over 500 Spams for 100 real emails.
This product immediately reclaimed my inbox, and I haven't looked back. If you
use Outlook, this is the only software to consider. Using advanced statistical
algorithms to differentiate Spam from Ham, this program should be able to separate
your messages with an over 99% success rate. By periodically retraining the software
with your most recent Spam and Ham messages, it will should always be able to
keep up with the Spammer's latest tricks and products. Give it a try.

"extraordinary inbox spam filter!"
I receive over 100 spam/day - InBoxer beta has successfully caught 99.9% - I
no longer groan to open my Inbox. Great product - highly recommended

"Best AntiSpam that I've found"
InBoxer installs easily and flawlessly. I actually beta tested their orignal
product. Having used several other antispam products, I've seen the good and
bad. The biggest issue I saw with antispam was erroneously classifying good mail
as Spam. This product has never misclassified good mail. if in doubt, it goes
to a "Maybe Spam" folder. No product will ever catch all spam. This
one gets 98% of it.

"Simple and effective"
InBoxer uses the very effective SpamBayes engine, wrapped up in a user-friendly
package. I've been running it for a couple of months and get excellent accuracy
now.

"InBoxer works great — it's easy to use and accurate"
I was getting about 50 spam messages a day to my company email account. I tried
setting up filters in Outlook, but it was hopeless. About 3 months ago, I installed
InBoxer and turned off all those ineffective filters. What a relief. Within 2
weeks, less than 1 spam a day was getting through to my inBox. In the past month,
I can't recall seeing a single spam in my inbox. But this relief from spam doesn't
come at the expense of missing legitimate messages. Inboxer classifies every
message as Spam or Spam Maybe. Since installing it, I have never had a legitimate
email classified as Spam. Occassionally (1 to 3 email per week), it classifies
a legitimate message as Spam Maybe. But it's easy to go through the Spam Maybe
folder and look for legitimate messages because only a few messages (<20 per
week) get classified that way. You just have to select the 1 or 2 legitimate
messages, click "It's Good" to re-classify a message as legitimate,
and it won't make the same mistake again. End your suffering--get InBoxer.

"No false positives"
OK, a lot of these spam filters claim 95% or 98% or 100% accuracy. But, the real
issue is how many messages that I need to see are killed? Like that product that
sends an email when it doesn't recognize the email address of a sender. Well,
I lost an airline reservation with one of those cuz the airline didn't respond
to an email. What a pain. Well, InBoxer has not blocked a single good message.
I have had more than 100 spam blocked -- but not one good message. I think I
will pay for this download.

"The way software should be"
This is the way software should be — smart enough to learn and adapt and above
all be unobtrusive to the end user. InBoxer epitomizes the often promised (yet
seldom achieved) blend of powerful functionality with little or no maintenance.
InBoxer accurately filters spam out of the way and increases accuracy over time
— if only all software were this good!
Ron Sandstrom
"A great product that gets smarter based on your
own usage"
InBoxer is a winner. As a technology evaluator and a person in the software business
for over 20 years, few software products are a real surprise. InBoxer is a surprise.
InBoxer takes a smart approach to solving the spam problem. Using its smart technology,
InBoxer learns from you. Unlike, most Spam products that have fixed lists of
keywords, phrases or rules and need to be updated on a regular basis, InBoxer
learns from you. Looking under the covers InBoxer uses advanced Natural Language
Processing Technology techniques to score each email that arrives. These scores
are constantly updated as a result of your choices. The result is a superior
spam checker that can filter documents based on your own preferences. There is
no need to learn complex rules or to constantly update the spam checking rule
set with InBoxer. I would highly recommend InBoxer to anyone who needs a spam
checker.

"A good method of detecting and filtering spam"
It would be better not to need a product like this, but I do. My Outlook account
(my main one) gets anywhere from 3 to 20 pieces of spam per day. I've used this
program for a couple of months now and it's flagged virtually all spam as either "spam" (90+%
confident) or "spam maybe" (25% confident). At this point, somewhere
between 2 and 4% of spam gets through (it still hits my inbox), and about 20-25%
of what's flagged as "possible spam" is real email. Furthermore, no
mail detected as "definite spam" has been a "false positive".
At this point (about 2 or 3 months of use), I'd say the system is pretty well
trained, so I'd like to post some data. I have some data for the past 3 weeks:
I've gotten 132 emails. 63 were "flagged as spam". All were really
spam. 16 were "flagged as possible spam". 5 of these were real emails.
The rest were spam. 53 were detected as "real email". Of these, 2 were
spam. This program has the most difficulty with spam that's primarily graphical
in nature. The items that have generally been in the "Possible Spam" folder
have had very little text in them. Rather, they've been 1 big graphic image.
Overall, I've used a couple of different spam filters, and this is the first
one I've felt confident enough to recommend. It isn't too aggressive (i.e., it
doesn't delete things that you don't know about), and it takes a couple of weeks
to get going. However, once trained, it's a real nice treat. Now my hotmail account
is another story! It's just too bad that a program like this is even necessary.
Happy Inboxer User :-)
"Extraordinarily effective Anti-Spam tool"
What sets this program apart from most others is that it learns your personal
preference for what is spam versus what is good. This is better than using vendor
supplied lists of keywords and email domains for doing the filtering. The more
you use this program, the better it gets, and it couldn't be easier to use it.
Instead of hitting the delete key on a spam email, simply hit the "Block" button.
No more work for you, but under the covers, the next spam email that is like
this one is more likely to be automatically recognized as spam. Highly recommended.
ChrisR
"Simple and effective"
Installing InBoxer was a snap. I had it learn my spam patterns from my old messages
(took about 2 minutes) and it has worked without intervention since. I've never
had a false positive and it only occassionally requires a clarification, which
it uses to learn-it never asks twice. After a month of use I hardly ever see
spam in my inbox anymore.
Sally Jablon
"Reduces Spam considerably"
Inboxer made my life much easier, especially with the Spam I get sporadically
or randomly. It has put legitimate mail in the Spam folder only a few times and
it was easy to correct the paradigm to keep it from happening again

"Most capable and easy to use filter available"
We have tested InBoxer rigorously versus 29 competitors. InBoxer is the only
one that performed flawlessly on an Exchange network as well as when connected
through ComCast to a POP3 mailbox. Considerably more accurate than any of the
alternatives tested, >99%. No false positives. This product is entirely suited
to deployment across an enterprise and will require minimal support from our
IT staff. This appears to be a profssional quality product.

"It just seems to work"
I have to thank you. I've had my current email address for a LONG time and it
is necessary for my business that my personal email is on our website which makes
me extremely vulnerable to spam-bots and bulk mailers. Inboxer got 47 spam emails
during last night and catches about 3 - 12 an hour throughout the day! InBoxer
has never yet misunderstood an email from a client or friend as spam. I'm thrilled.
We'll begin an enterprise roll-out on all entire organization's machines this
week. Caitlin Jewell Principal and Creative Director Silverscape, LLC

"This is the way to go to deal with Spam"
Inboxer is easy to set up and use. You have full control over how you want to
deal with spam. The program learns as it goes and as you make choices. My isp
uses spam control and often gets it wrong as it seems to flag almost all html
email. I used Outlook filters previously but had to glance through too much mail
and recover a lot. Now I have very few mistakes. It took about 2 days to get
the program to be about 97% right. About a week later I think it is about 99%
right. What I really like is that whatever spammers come up with in the future,
I can choose what to do with it and I don't have to buy better anti-spam software.
Version 1.0 of Inboxer will pay for itself in time saved in no time at all. Highly
recommended!!
