Free Online Spam Filter
 

Has anybody tried this service


www.spamagogo.com


It offers free online spam filtering. But I am a bit wary of supplying my email address and password in case its just a scam to obtain access to email accounts.

Or does anybody know of other sites offering the same service ?

It looks genuine to me but note:-

The original (paid for) is probably via www.spamcop.net. This is different from www.spamnet.org which I think uses the well regarded open-source from http://www.spamassassin.org. Spamnet 'groupware' from http://www.cloudmark.com looks interesting but kept crashing my outlook -perhaps becuase I never upgraded from the free beta version. I am currently trying the free open source outlook plug-in from http://spambayes.sourceforge.net/ which seems accurate but slow.

Hi,
I'm the lead developer of Spamagogo. I assure you, we're genuine. Also, we're not affiliated with any of the organizations you mentioned, our spam filtering is done using our own technology, which is a collection of various techniques such as bayesian, ip-based blacklists, and collaborative filtering.

Anyway, do you think that there is anything we can do to our website to help people feel better about using it?

Thanks,
Matt Miller

A True BusinessID from GeoTrust would solve this problem...

The e-mail referred to here also comes with SpamAssassin filtering which is very effective.
