    Version: MailWasher Free 5.1

    "Free version really helps bring spam under control"

    by yoshm on July 18, 2006

    Pros: (I orginally wrote the following as a reply to a negative review below)

    If you spend some time with it, you'll find it's actually quite valuable, even in the free version. For example, even though the preview panel is disabled, you can double-click any email & preview it in a pop-up window. The handy side panel for maintaining whitelist, blacklist, etc. is disabled -- but it's accessible from the Option menu item. there are plenty of available options in the free version -- e.g., take a look at the Display tab where you can customize how it shows the list. And so forth. While it's true that it will only handle one email account at a time, there is nothing to stop you from changing which one that is, so you can move from one to the next.

    Of course, if you want the full power, you can always pay for the upgrade, but it's still useful in the free version. And, no, I don't work for or have anything else to do with the company that makes it. Just a reasonably happy user of the free version.
