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:-

Spamagogo is a unique Spam blocking tool currently in the beta testing phase. During this period, use is totally free, as right now, we're really just looking for feedback.

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.

Re: Free Online Spam Filter
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

Re: Free Online Spam Filter
A True BusinessID from GeoTrust would solve this problem...

And no I don't work for them

Re: Free Online Spam Filter
The e-mail referred to here also comes with SpamAssassin filtering which is very effective.
