VIRUS SCRUB FOR MAC OUTLOOK CLIENT SOFTWARE
C-Command Software’s $30 SpamSieve has been around since 2002 and is hands down the best spam filtering software for Mac. Years ago I decided that I prefer using software on my Mac to filter spam.
And Apple Mail-the email client I use-isn’t great at filtering spam. I get lots of contacts from readers, and it’s annoying to find that many of these emails get tossed in the spam folder. But I find that when the server filters the spam, I forget to check for legitimate emails. If you have your own domain name and host your email, then you can control how a server-side spam filter works. Much of the spam that iCloud gets is simply deleted, and you don’t even know about it. In Gmail you can view your spam to check for any legitimate email that has been filtered as noxious, but you can’t do this with iCloud. If you use Gmail or iCloud for your email, there are built-in spam filters. There are several ways you can block spam. Whether it’s spam that contains attachments-which, if opened, could hijack your computer (though most often, these attachments carry Windows malware)-or phishing emails that try to trick you into entering your bank or Apple ID credentials on dodgy websites, spam is both an annoyance and a danger.
It’s been a plague since the earliest days of the Internet. Sometimes it’s hard to sort the wheat from the chaff or the ham from the spam. Some estimates say that 90 percent of email sent around the world is spam.
