The following notifications are available:
- Good messages sent from Contacts
- This posts one notification for each good message that arrives (where
the sender is in your Contacts), showing the message’s subject,
the first few lines of its body, and (if possible) a picture of the
sender.
- Other good messages
- This posts one notification for each good message that arrives
(where the sender is not in your address book), showing the
message’s subject and the first few lines of its body.
- The number of new good messages
- This notification mimics the red number in SpamSieve’s Dock icon (see Show
number of new good messages in Dock). After a batch of good messages
arrives, it tells you how many new messages there are and then fades away.
- Uncertain spam messages
- This notification helps you spot false positives by telling you when a
message has arrived that SpamSieve thinks is spam, but that may actually
be good. For more information, see the Uncertain Spam Messages
preference. By watching these notifications, you can spot false positives
without having to look through the entire contents of the Junk mailbox
in your mail program. When using this notification, you may want to go to
System Settings ‣ Notification and set the SpamSieve notifications
to display as Alerts to make sure that you see all the notifications.
Clicking to close the notification does not change whether SpamSieve
thinks the message is spam. For messages that are actually spam, you don’t
need to do anything. For messages that are not spam, you can click to open
the message in SpamSieve’s Log window and then train it as good.
