...compared Purify to SpamSieve?
I use the latter, and am pleased with it, but I still like to know what else is available and how it stacks up.

Just an update.After doing a clean install of Leopard Spam Sieve's accuracy is a bit under 83%. I know that with training it will get better.
Purify is working wonderful as a filter. It takes more effort to set it up, but it's worth it.

They're different. SpamSieve will filter your spam and place it on a folder. It lacks a user interface, and it is very accurate. 98.9% in my case.I've just used Purify for a couple of weeks, mostly to report spam, but not to filter it. Previously I had used Sp@mX for this purpose, and it was great.
A few criticisms:
-The interface is not Mac-like both in terms of look and behavior. For example, clicking on the "Close" button will minimize the Window.
-Sometimes I need to try 3 or 4 times for my email to be downloaded. I have not experienced this with 1.2.2, but I've only received 2 emails since installing the new version. :-)
-Reporting spamvertized sites usually brings an error. I have to uncheck it in order to send a report.
Jeff offers great support, and people at the forum are very helpful as well.
