Product Description:

SpamSieve gives you back your inbox by bringing powerful Bayesian spam filtering to popular e-mail clients. It learns what your spam looks like, so it can block nearly all of it. It looks at your address book and learns what your good messages look like, so it won't confuse them with spam. Other spam filters get worse over time as spammers adapt to their rules; SpamSieve actually gets better over time as you train it with more messages. SpamSieve doesn't delete any messages--it only marks them in your e-mail client--so you'll never lose any mail. SpamSieve works with any number of mail accounts, of whatever types are supported by your e-mail software (e.g. POP, IMAP, Hotmail, AOL).

What's new in this version:

SpamSieve can now move Apple Mail POP messages to the Spam folder. Thus, it now fully supports Apple Mail on Jaguar and Panther.
Honor Habeas headers is now off by default.
Fixed regression where blocklist and whitelist rules got deselected after editing their text.
When loading addresses from Entourage, SpamSieve now picks up addresses that are not associated with any contact (that is, they appear only in a group).
The default date shown in the Statistics window is now the date that SpamSieve was first launched, rather than September 2002.
The Apple Mail Add Good script is better at finding the proper inbox when moving false positives out of the Spam folder.
The Apple Mail Mark If Spam script can mark the spam messages as read.
The Purchase window now makes it more clear when a serial number has been accepted.
In the Statistics window, Set... is now Set Date... and Copy is now Copy Stats.
Fixed crash that could happen when processing messages in Japanese encodings.
Added Japanese localization.

Can't Mount DMG on Tiger! - Version: 2.7.7, 10/21/2009 02:49PM PST

Jason!

I've never ever had a problem with this great software. But for whatever reason, upon downloading the 2.7.7 DMG today (10 times, mind you, both automatically and manually), I was unable to Mount the DMG. I get a "no mountable file systems" very time.

I have seen this in the past with a couple other DMGs not related to SpamSieve. But I was able to resolve the problem on those simply by using Disk Utility to "Convert" the DMG to a Read/Write or Read Only format. I tried that on this Spam Sieve DMG and it doesn't work.

So for now, I am unable to upgrade due to what appears to be a bug in the DMG (Tiger incompatibility?).

I think the .dmg is fine

SpamSeive 2.7.7 works with OS X 10.6.1, but not with the latest (beta) versions of Eudora 8 and Thunderbird. I had to downgrade Thunderbird to start the trial period on SpamSeive. As it turned out, that wasn't difficult. But it was a nuisance.

Did OS 10.6.1 break SpamSieve? - Version: 2.7.6, 9/11/2009 11:02AM PST

I just read a person claiming that the Mail update with OS 10.6.1 doesn't play with this version of SpamSieve.

Can anyone confirm that's true? If so, I may hold off on installing 10.6.1.
