Download K9 1.17

Robin Keir has released a new version of the spam marker K9. This small program checks the incoming mail from a POP3 mailbox and thereby marks the advertising messages. In addition, K9 “learns” from its mistakes which makes it even better to check the mail. Version 1.17 was recently released and has the following release notes:

Version 1.17:

• Added DNSBL support.
• Fixed problem decoding MIME headers with some emails.
• Enhanced the right-click filter context menu.
• Rules added from right-click context menu are checked for duplicates before being added to lists.
• Shows overall accuracy statistics in the status bar.

Version 1.16:

• Added database “trim” feature to Statistics tab. This can help reduce the size of the databases, improve load times and reduce memory usage.
• Added extra code to detect and ignore “junk” words hidden in HTML.
• Databases are again saved to disk at exit. Reclassifying emails and exiting K9 before an email session occurred would not have recorded changes in the DBs.
• Fixed some problems with reading emails on the Server Check tab.
• Improved list display update speed for Organize.
