DESCRIPTION
POPmonitor allows you to delete unwanted e-mail from your mailbox without downloading it to your computer first. And wouldn't it be a real money saver if you could trash messages with large attachments without the need to download them to your computer first
WHAT'S NEW
Version 2.1.3 adds the following:
  • Improved existing filters and added new powerful filters
  • Improved ISO character set decoding to properly deal with encoded characters such as �
  • Fixed bug where ISO character set decoding was not carried out while applying message body filters causing some filters to incidentally skip messages that should have been flagged or deleted
  • Fixed issue where the Check All Accounts menu item would be enabled only if at least one account window was visible
  • Fixed cosmetic issue where message without subject is now titled 'Untitled message' when shown in a separate window
  • Enlarged text fields in the Create Filter window to allow easier editing of keywords
  • Added warning dialog to the Create Filter window to notify when a filter's keyword string exceeds the 243 character limit
  • Fixed bug where multi-line subject would be truncated
  • Fixed bug where missing From e-mail address could cause unexpected message actions
  • Fixed bug where incorrectly formatted e-mail addresses could be shown in the Select Bounce Address window
  • Fixed bug where cancelled bounce messages would get deleted if Automatically Delete Mail After Bouncing It was enabled
  • Added Apple Mail 1.3 and Eudora 6 to the list of supported e-mail applications [MacOS X]
  • Added support for MacOS X 10.3's Address Book [MacOS X]
  • Improved vCard support [MacOS X]
  • Fixed cosmetic issue where two Help menus would appear when running MacOS X 10.3.0 or newer [MacOS X]
  • Fixed bug where POPmonitor would show a 'Where is?' dialog window after selecting the User Guide option from the Help menu [MacOS X]

MICHAEL IN LONDON UK  I love this monitor but have since been advised by Author that it will no longer be worked on or updated.

This since I have discovered that in Tiger you can no longer bounce a message back.

Although this may not be crucial it would be nice to still have this facilty.

It would also would be nice to have an improved GUI to bring it up to date...one lives in hope.

Maybe there is another programme out the that does the same thing???

ANONYMOUS  I don't have any problems using this program, but it would be nice if in the account window when there was an unread message it would be in bold or have some sort of marker so you know if a new message has been received by your inbox. I have it set to alert me when a new message is in, but it can become an issue if you have multiple emails from the same person along with new emails from a different sender.

FOULGER  I took the time to send an E-Mail to the developer, respectfully suggesting that POPMonitor was due for an overhaul. This is his response

Unfortunately I've had to postpone the development of POPmonitor 3 for an undetermined period of time. The economic situation here in the Netherlands is not as great as it used to be so I have to focus on more profitable

activities right now.

I can't tell if and when there will be a release of POPmonitor 3.

Sorry...

Thats probably the most irresponsible reply I have ever had but at least it clarifies matters and leaves an opening for a developer to bring out a similary product.

ANONYMOUS  I changed the name of the Popmonitor application Icon (mine is now called "E-mailMonitor") as is suggested in the PopMonitor Web site, and I never had the problem quitting the application. Now it works for me in OS 10.4 as good as in my old iMac with system 9. I just love this application, because I never had to read those psychotic words that come in spam email subjects.

ANONYMOUS  The crash issue is cleared up on the FAQ page and is a Tiger error - not POPmonitor.

All in all I think this is just about the equal of Mailwasher on the PC and certainly much, much better than the buggy Mac mailwasher released recently (which has been dev frozen).

This is elegent and has the advanced features (regexp filtering etc) and configurability that put this above some of the "learning" email filters out there.

Try it - then buy it - definately worth the asking price.

MISHA35  Popmonitor 2.1.3 crashes under "Tiger" when 'quitting the application'.

IMHO, it needs to be updated for OS X.4.

3818  I have been a registered user of PopMonitor for over a year. It's simple, yet elegant, to use. Successfully traps over 90% of the SPAM I get with just its default filter package. Highly recommended; works independently of your e-Mail client so it gives you many options PRIOR to downloading any e-Mail to your Hard Drive. PopMonitor is an EXCELLENT anti-SPAM value. Get it!

JFM  I have been using it for the past week, after an e-mail account which I do not want to delete became spam-infested. I had already an experience of using MailWasher on PC, before I switched to the Mac last March (MailWasher shopuld become available for Mac later this year - the concept of both products is similar under several aspects).

I am pleased to report that it has been working perfectly. It allows one to filter spam while keeping full control on mail, and without downloading spam on the local computer. It is easy to add trusted senders, as well as to create personal filters. Even without personal filters, it is easy to have incoming mail ordered into different categories according to different criteria (trusted or not trusted, etc.), which allows to spot spam instantly.

Moreover, several suggestions which I submitted to the developer got very precise responses (thank you!) and will be considered for future releases. I was told one major upgrade will come toward the end of the year and include a consolidated window for all accounts, which will be a welcome step forward.

In those times of widespread spam, POPmonitor is the kind of tool which everybody needs to have, and my personal testing has allowed me to see that it reliable and efficient. Very stable too.
