Version 2.2.2 of SpamSieve is now available.

This is a free update that includes the following changes:

• Can notify with Growl when good messages arrive, and to help spot false positives without looking through the entire contents of the spam folder.
• Added Change Settings commands for Apple Mail and Entourage, which let you configure script options (spam folder name, behavior when using Train Good and Train Spam, etc.) without having to edit the scripts. The settings are stored in SpamSieve’s preferences file, so they will persist if you update or re-install the scripts.
• Fixed bug where SpamSieve would report a syntax error when processing certain messages (typically in non-ASCII character sets).
• Better accuracy due to improved header and body analysis.
• Better accuracy due to smarter auto-creation of From (name) rules.
• Auto-training now takes scores into account; the corpus is updated using messages that were harder to classify, to forestall errors.
• Better handling of spam messages that lie about their encoding.
• Entourage now uses two separate categories for spam messages, so that you can see which ones are more (or less) spammy.
• Improved accuracy when processing messages in German.
• Any Address rules now match SendTo addresses.
• Better handling of messages with “From ” lines.
• Worked around Mail performance problem where Add Good would hang if there were a lot of recipients.
• The Dock (and DragThing) good message counter no longer increases for messages received while the mail program is active.
• Added Russian localization.
• Improved the French localization.
• Better recovery from damaged Rules and History.db files.
• Added Italian-localized installation instructions.
• Improved launch time.
• Better parsing of PGP messages.
• Worked around 10.2 bug that could cause crashes when the Training Tip window was updated.
• Fixed bad interaction between auto-training and duplicates when the corpus was small.
• More tolerant of incorrect file and folder permissions.
• If Launch Services cannot find the Eudora application, the installer will now try some heuristics and prompt the user to locate Eudora, rather than giving up.
• The Apple Mail and Eudora plug-ins are better at finding and launching the SpamSieve application, and they will notify the user if they are unable to do this.
• Updated to eSellerate 3.5.9, which provides support for registration names using non-ASCII characters.
• When you type in your serial number, SpamSieve normalizes its spacing and case.
• The Add Good and Add Spam AppleScripts have been renamed Train Good and Train Spam. When installing the new scripts, SpamSieve will automatically move the old ones to the trash.
• The Entourage spam folder is now called Junk E-mail instead of Spam, since Entourage 2004 already has a so-named folder.
