"Messes up email settings, removes mail from server"
Pros: At first I was extremely enthused. The paid version is totally configurable to user's wishes, works as it should.
Cons: Can't understand high rating of this software, because after a couple of days I discovered that Choicemal removes all the emails from the server when it downloads them. If you do that anyway, fine. But for some, like me, it is essential to leave emails on server for a designated time so they may be accessed by others or from different computers.
I disabled Choicemail while waiting for a response from their Support team about that issue, and that's when I discovered it also changes all email account settings so that I was unable to get any email until I went in and reconfigured all my emails accounts to their original settings. No Thanks!
I think people post enthused ratings prematurely, before they have used a program long enough to discover all its weaknesses.

"Excellent Product! I highly recommend!! No more spam!!!"
Pros: You have to download this product! I installed the free version last night. It works flawlessly. No spam will ever get through again! My address book does not change much (friends and family) so this is the perfect product! The reviews that said there was ads and spyware must have already had them on their computer. I will most likley purchase the $40 procuct I like this product so well.
Cons: You cannot import your address book from Outlook Express without purchasing the $40 version. Not a big problem for me.. I manually imported about 50 names in 20 mins.

"The program is so good that it only took me a day or two to decide to buy it!!"
Pros: I think I like it's overall mail handling as much or more than the spam filtering. For PDA users, it's a Godsend as it brings one's Hotmail, MSN, Yahoo, GMail etc all into the e-mail's inbox, thus making it sync with your pocket PC. The setup was a breeze AND it makes the importing of the various webmail accounts a cinch. For testing purposes, I've set it up with Outlook, Outlook Express, Incredimail and Thunderbird all of which worked flawlessly. I cannot more highly recommend any product and I'd buy at twice the price.
