Spamato 0.99 released

The Spamato development team is proud to announce the release of version 0.99 of the Spamato spam filter system (http://spamato.sourceforge.net).

Spamato bundles several spam filters to effectively combat spam. It can directly be integrated into popular email clients such as Microsoft Outlook, Thunderbird, and Mozilla Mail, or work as a stand-alone proxy component with any other email client. Spamato has (partially) been written in Java and works on all major platforms. That is, it is a real alternative to any 'built-in-but-does-not-work-well' solution.

This release contains several bugfixes and improvements over previous versions; to name a few:

* New collaborative filter 'Comha' (beta).
* Ruleminator rules are now handled as 'first-class' filters; known-senders rule is more powerful.
* The Base shows some information about which messages are being filtered.
* The Filter History provides a basic 'search' for filter results.
* Minor updates for Spamato4Outlook, Spamato4Thunderbird and Spamatoxy.
* Several bugfixes and improvements 'under the hood'.
* Migration to new servers.

Please read the instructions on our download page carefully when upgrading from an older version: http://www.spamato.net/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=30&Itemid=63.

The development of Spamato hasn't stopped! Some open issues for version 1.0 of Spamato:
* New (collaborative) filters
* Weighting of filter results
* Improved statistics (on- and offline)
* Fully functional update and publish mechanism for plug-ins
* You name it! Provide us with your ideas in our forums on
Sourceforge: http://sourceforge.net/projects/spamato

Stay tuned and give us feedback! http://spamato.sourceforge.net
