   Hmm.. I'd have to disagree.I've been using [url=http://spambayes.sourceforge.net/]Spam Bayes[/url] for years and its been great. It's free, cross platform and provides plugins for most common email clients.

   I like the Thunderbird email client that I have. The spam protection is really good, I think. However, never hurts to give something like this a try.

   Ok, so the title was a bit sensationalist, I admit that much .That said, Spam bayes is roughly the same as POPFile in concept, so we are in the same page there. Thunderbird has decent spam protection, more so than Outlook's built-in junk email options, but POPFile is more powerful (according to my very informal tests).

   So it's something that runs in the background? How does it 'integrate' or work with Thunderbird?

   POPFile sits between your POP server and your client, so you have to modify your incoming email server in any client you use to listen to the POPFile designated address.
