Version 3.0.1 of SpamSieve<\/a> is now available.<\/p>\n\n

Save time by adding powerful spam filtering to the e-mail client on your Mac. SpamSieve gives you back your inbox, using Bayesian spam filtering<\/a> to provide amazing accuracy that\u2019s constantly improving. SpamSieve learns and adapts to your mail, so it\u2019s able to block nearly all the junk\u2014without putting good messages in the Junk mailbox. It\u2019s quick and easy to control SpamSieve from within Apple Mail, Outlook, Airmail, MailMate, GyazMail, Mailsmith, and more.<\/p>\n\n

SpamSieve running on your Mac can keep the spam off your iPhone\/iPad<\/a>, and you can even train SpamSieve from your iOS device<\/a>. SpamSieve protects your privacy. It does not need access to your mail account login and does not transmit your mail data anywhere. All the processing is done on your Mac.<\/p>\n\n

SpamSieve 3.0.1<\/a> is a free update for those who have already purchased the SpamSieve 3.0 upgrade<\/a>. If you\u2019re using SpamSieve 2 and haven\u2019t upgraded yet, the easiest way is to first let SpamSieve install the new version. At launch, it will show the Purchase<\/strong> window, and you can click the Check Upgrade Options<\/strong> button to get the upgrade discount without having to enter your old serial number.<\/p>\n

\"Apple<\/a>SpamSieve 3.0 brought a new way of integrating with Apple Mail\u2014using a Mail extension\u2014that\u2019s compatible with macOS 14 Sonoma. Most customers have had success with this simpler system, where there\u2019s no plug-in to install or rule to set up. Unfortunately, some customers encountered a macOS bug where Apple Mail stops sending new messages to SpamSieve\u2019s Mail extension. This would cause spam messages to be left in the inbox, not because SpamSieve thought they were good, but because it hadn\u2019t actually seen them.<\/p>\n\t\t

\"Settings:<\/a>We were aware of this problem affecting a small percentage of customers, and SpamSieve 3.0 included a built-in workaround: you could enable the Filter spam messages in other mailboxes<\/a> feature and select your inboxes, and then SpamSieve would periodically check them for any new messages that Mail hadn\u2019t sent to the extension. This worked, but there were a few downsides. You had to know\u2014or see in the Log<\/a> window or FAQ<\/a>\u2014that you needed to configure this. Also, there could be a slight delay before SpamSieve would detect the new messages; you could optionally enable a green flag<\/a> to indicate to you when a message in the inbox had, in fact, been processed.<\/p>\n\t\t

\"Settings:<\/a>The main focus of SpamSieve 3.0.1 is improving this workaround so that everyone can get their mail filtered, even when Apple Mail is misbehaving. SpamSieve 3.0.1 adds a Check inboxes for new messages not sent to Mail extension<\/a> feature that will automatically filter all of your inboxes, without your having to configure anything. Currently, this feature only kicks in if your inbox has fewer than 5,000 messages. We found that trying to read a larger inbox could cause Mail to freeze. If there are too many messages in the inbox, SpamSieve will skip it and tell you this in the Settings \u2023 Apple Mail \u2023 Setup<\/a> window and in the Log<\/a> window. Filtering will automatically resume if you move some messages to the Archive<\/strong> mailbox (or to another mailbox that you create, such as Inbox2<\/strong>) to get below the limit.<\/p>\n\t\t

\tWe understand that needing to move messages is not ideal, but most customers are below the limit and we wanted to get the fix to them as soon as possible. If you have a fast Mac, it may be able to handle a higher limit, and you can adjust this in the esoteric preferences<\/a>. For SpamSieve 3.0.2, we\u2019re working on another way of accessing the messages, which will work for larger inboxes and with a much shorter delay. \n\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t

\tTo be clear, all of this only applies for customers impacted by the macOS bug that prevents new messages from being sent to SpamSieve\u2019s Mail extension. For most people, Mail does<\/em> send messages to the extension for filtering. If your inbox has a large number of messages but is<\/em> being filtered properly by the extension, you can ignore any error messages that SpamSieve reports about there being too many messages. The error just means that SpamSieve couldn\u2019t double-check that all the new messages were processed. \n\t\t<\/p>\n\t<\/dd>\n\t
