ChoiceMail One 3.0

DigiPortals ChoiceMail One is a permission-based junk-mail filter that only allows e-mail messages into your inbox from people youve already approved as legitimate senders. When someone tries to e-mail you for the first time, ChoiceMail asks the sender to confirm his or her identity. Once your contacts do this, ChoiceMail will add those people to your whitelist, sending all future messages to your inbox.

Spammers wont respond because they almost never post their real addresses in their messages, they typically use automated programs to send out e-mails, and they cant reply to incoming mail. As a result, a real person can easily answer ChoiceMails message, but spam will never get into your inbox.

Whether youre using a typical POP3 e-mail account, an IMAP account, or a Web mail account, ChoiceMail works perfectly. It even supports the use of multiple e-mail accounts. The only possible hitch to using ChoiceMail is for business users who frequently receive e-mail messages from prospective clients. Some people might feel put off by having to go through a special step to get their first message through to you.

ChoiceMail One 3.0 doesnt offer any new features over the previous incarnation, but the performance is much better. If you use a previous version of ChoiceMail, you should strongly consider updating to version 3.0. The company chalks the improved performance up to fixing a few errors in the software, plugging a few memory leaks, offering better message storage on the hard drive, and providing the ability to detect anti-spyware utilities that block registry changes.

If youre looking for an infallible way to keep spam out of your inbox, ChoiceMail One 3.0 is the way to go.
