Hello,

I'm make this quick since I forgot to confirm my email, my whole message was deleted by going back...

BogoFilter, DSPAM, PopFile, SpamAssassin and SpamPal. Which is the best of these?

I ask because crap that is usually thrown into the spam folder makes it through my gmail account of all places, I'm used to ISP accounts not being great at filtering away spam, but my new FTTH fiber ISP are really good.

I picked SpamAssassin because it sounded like the most aggressive sounding one and it generally worked well. But maybe I'm wrong, if I can get a small review of each of these hidden programs that do the job in the back and what's the best choice, or maybe the best choice depending on accounts. I'd really like to know and the information regarding this seems difficult to find.

Thanks a lot!

I'd just use the built-in spam filter. http://kb.mozillazine.org/Junk_Mail_Controls

I'm not a fan of browsing through all the crap, marking them as spam and then do a spam control.

The old Outlook Express was detecting spam without me intervening. Not that I worship this extremely long to start, at least in the original 98 (SE was okay) and winxp days (win2k started it real fast, no surprise, in case I ever update win7, it's gonna ben win server 2012 and not that malware OS Win10).

SpamAssassin is offered by Thunderbird, as well as the others mentioned. It works pretty well in general, just curious about the others.

As far as I understand it, the settings in Thunderbird are there to allow you to take advantage of any of these services if they are available to you. Some ISPs or email providers may offer them. Some users run their own SpamAssassin server. But none of them is built into Thunderbird.

In general, these services add headers to messages with scores and analysis on the probable spamminess of the message, and the settings in Thunderbird that you mention allow it to make use of such information.

In short, you may use only whatever is available to you. Enabling SpamAssassin support in Thunderbird is pointless if your messages are not being processed through a SpamAssassin server.

Well SpamAssassin does work when I set it, I also set the spam to go directly into the spam folder, sometimes though non-spam is flagged as spam, and my gmail account sometimes doesn't download, or rather thunderbird doesn't download a forum acceptance link which I have to go in gmail.com to find, in the spam folder there, kind of beats the purpose, I wonder why T-Bird won't download it even, but, it's not that big a deal. Also I have 2 accounts on a russian provider and suddenly they can only receive emails, sending fails, saying I am encrypting them, when it is set to Normal.

But otherwise this solved my question, it means my services do use SpamAssassin.
