Subject: What a great program

I just wanted to say I have been using death2spam for about 2 weeks after
being encouraged to by my ISP. It has been fantastic, what a relief! I
get between 50-100 emails a day (half spam). I have only had to reclassify
about 10 from "unsure" to "spam" or "good" and now I'm confident about
just letting death2spam get on with the job.

Wow!! has it worked well.  Thank you for your service.  I have been
deluged with Spam and it has just driven me to almost want to change
my address. One day with your product, and NZ based, and my inbox has
returned to normal.

I have been using Death2Spam for nearly a month, and I've found it to be a
fantastic way to get spam out of my mail.  Its performance so far has been
about 99%.  It is so much better than other spam filters I've tried which
rely on scripting or a 2-step process of checking mail.

This software is simply the coolest and most useful software
development I have experienced in a long time.  If this is not
marketed to the rest of the world real soon and the developer(s)
getting very rich, then there must be something wrong somewhere.

Thanks for having rid my life of Spam.

Subject: Thanks!  Death2spam is a HUGE time saver!

I recently heard about Death2spam from an article by Paul Graham.  I
figured, if it's good enough for Paul Graham to mention it, I'll give
it a try.

I thought that I was a "hard case":  I have three different machines
that read my personal email via POP, and they are on different
platforms.  I never delete email, and I get a lot of it, so I have to
store email locally on my client machines; it would take too much disk
space in a centralized mail server that I pay a monthly fee to use.  I
was excited when I found that you have a product that works perfectly
in this oddball scenario.

Since installing it, it has worked beautifully.  It filters spam much
better than Apple's Mail program (what I use on one of my machines).
The best part is that I no longer have to grit my teeth before opening
my mailbox.

Thank you, thank you, thank you!

Congratulations on a fantastic program. As a long term internet user I
have an email address which goes back to the mid 90's and was at the
point of getting rid of it - and then came Death2Spam!  Over the
years, and especially recently, I have tried out a whole range of
products given that 80% plus of my emails were rubbish. Every product
tested had severe deficiences - some misclassified emails, others were
too cumbersome to maintain, and there were those that even seized my
PC!  D2S does all it promises and more. I especially like the simple
web based opportunity to provide fine tuning. I am recommending it to
everyone I know.

Subject: Using D2S

Wow!!

What a great programme!

I am delighted with the results so far. (I am still playing with the
preferences etc)

I was going to mention that I had noticed the "spammers" were putting
"Re:" and "FWD:" in their subject lines - but I don't need to tell you
- D2S shuts them out already!

Best regards - Iain

Death2Spam has been really GREAT!! It is just shocking that about 50%
of my email appears to be just trash but at least there now seems to
be something that will let me get rid of it a little easier. The
learning filtering is also great, it is almost perfect at this point.
You have come up with a really great product.

Created a new user account here... aimed it at your service..
aimed your service at road runner's server..
and then used it to create several messages in a few news groups.
And the spam started rolling in..
and it got properly tagged so far.  <yahoo>

Subject: Nothing slips thru!
From:    Chap Harrison

Richard,

I just received my first piece of spam that consisted of nothing but an
innocuous-sounding Sender ("Claire Smith" - how school-marmish!), a
subject line of "Hi", and a single hyperlinked sentence ("Click here to
meet a married woman in your town").  D2S gave it a Spam-Probability of
0.9969.  If I didn't know how you were handling those, I'd be totally
mystified.

Brilliant work, old man.  Brilliant!

Richard,

Killspam Spamgone Gbyejunk Stopspam Endspam whatever it's name when
released, others will call it the 'Program of the Year.'

For ages I thought there was no real hope possible against spam. Then
last fall I added an iMac to our list of machines and discovered that
with OS X, Apple had a spam filter that is 95% effective at tagging
them, and 100% effective at not mis-tagging. Suddenly the end of spam
became possible, and it looks like you will accomplish it.

A much appreciative Rey Barry
