SpamSieve Technical Support

Known Issues

1. SpamSieve 3.0.2 (released November 17) is compatible with macOS 10.13 through macOS 14 and Apple Silicon Macs.
2. Apple Mail in macOS 14 Sonoma removes support for Mail plug-ins, so SpamSieve 2 will stop working. SpamSieve 3 has been released with support for Sonoma. Here’s a guide explaining the transition.
3. If you want to use a pre-release version of macOS or update to the latest release version as soon as it’s ready, check out the SpamSieve public beta.

Getting Help

1. SpamSieve 3 is a paid upgrade. At the top of the Purchase window, there should be a Check Upgrade Options button that will let you get the upgrade discount—you do not need to re-enter your SpamSieve 2 serial. If you aren’t ready to upgrade your license yet, SpamSieve 3 will run for free for 30 days, and SpamSieve 2 is still available.
2. The SpamSieve manual includes the list of supported mail programs and OS versions, setup instructions for the different mail programs, a section on iPhone spam filtering, and a FAQ.
3. When troubleshooting, first take a look at SpamSieve’s Log window, which shows lots of information about what SpamSieve is doing and includes links to relevant help pages.
4. Are lots of spam messages (or more than before) ending up in your inbox? Please see this page. For the best filtering accuracy, follow the instructions to do an initial training and to correct all the mistakes.
5. Wondering why good messages are going to your Junk mailbox? Please see this page.
6. If your question is not answered above, please look in the SpamSieve forum, as someone else may have recently asked the same question. We are also happy to provide individualized support via e-mail. Please gather the proper background information and contact us by sending an e-mail to spamsieve@c-command.com. (Please do not forward spam messages to this address.)
