Software update: Mailwasher pro 3.2.0

Spread the love

The Firetrust folks pointed us to a new release of the anti-spam Mailwasher program. This has been given 3.2.0 as version number. One of the most important innovations is the support of SSL for IMAP. Furthermore, it is now possible to transfer settings from Outlook 10. The rest of the changelog looks like this:

New Features:

  • AOL / IMAP support added
    • – Note: Due to the AOL authentication system, AIM users will be disconnected when MailWasher first performs an AOL mail check. Those users should simply re-connect AIM after the first mail check or alternatively perform a mail check before connecting to the AIM network –
    • – Note #2: AOL does not support bouncing at this time
  • AOL / IMAP / Netscape account import system added
  • Added SSL Support to IMAP.
  • Multiple bounce address support added (Check “Advanced Options” in the bouncing tab)
  • The Status column now sorts by text when the status is equivalent so filters now get sorted alphabetically when sorting by Status
  • Heuristics updated
  • “Arrived” date column added
  • User can now optionally suppress all errors, in which case an error icon will be displayed on the status bar instead when an error occurs. Double-clicking on the error icon will bring up the error window as per normal.
  • Drag and drop added to filters list, DNS blacklist server list, and column order list
  • All account import systems upgraded
