"Easiest and effective Anti-Spam product to set up"
Version: MailWasher Free 5.1
Pros
I like the initial filtering set up examples -mail addressed to 'undisclosed recipients' or 'not directly addressed to me' to be marked for deletion.
Cons
On download I.E 6 browser stated the publisher was not verified.
Link to help you turn off automatic downloading in your email program doesn't take you direct to that FAQ ..you search under Setup.

"I use the MailWasher 1st, before download my email from mail server."
Version: MailWasher Free 5.1
Pros
I recommend, if you hate spam mail.
1. Easy to use
2. Don't worry about free license key or renew it
3. Little application
4. Smart filters email
5. Fast, real free
Cons
1. It's not have options to import - export Blacklist, export Friends List, but you can find friends list, blacklist in Documents and Settings folder in text file, it's hard to find. I don't understand why Firetrust don't keep it in MailWasher folder.
2. The free version support 1 email account
3. Banner ad.

"Fun to play with, but not effective."
Version: MailWasher Free 5.1
Pros
It's fun to bounce spam emails back to their origin, but with dialup, it takes time. I had it set to automatically hide any emails from those in my address book, then after bouncing spam, it automatically opened up Outlook Express, letting those emails come in.
Cons
Although it automatically deletes any spam from the same address as before, spam comes from numerous places. After 10 days, I am still getting at least 86 spam emails per day, that it has to keep downloading from my ISP. Even with it's storage of spam addresses to check with each spam email, there are just too many for this application to be effective.
