PRE-SCREENING EMAILS

Once mail headers have been downloaded into MailWasher Pro, the MailWasher icon will flash to alert the user of new mail. A double left-click on the MailWasher icon (in the tray bar) will open a window with a display of all messages waiting to be downloaded on the mail server.

At this point, the user may preview a message, or flag offending messages for deletion, bounce, or blacklist. Emails which are not flagged may be safely downloaded to a favorite mail program (such as Outlook Express, Netscape Mail, Eudora, etc).

BLACKLISTING AND HEURISTICS

MailWasher Pro uses pre-set Blacklist DNS servers, meaning that will actively compare all emails received against known spam offenders and automatically place the sender on a temporary blacklist. This is an extremely useful and accurate feature for detecting unsolicited mail.
Using heuristics, MailWasher Pro is also able to "guess" whether an email is Spam or contains a Virus, and marks the incoming mail as such. Heuristic levels can be adjusted to make MailWasher Pro more or less sensitive to suspect mail.
