The best way to combat spam in MailWasher Pro is its Bayesian filter. It works so well because it analyses everything about a message and compares it to existing knowledge, a lot like we humans spot junk mail.
Of course, MailWasher Pro does not have any previous knowledge when you first enable the Bayesian filter. It needs to be taught with a few messages so it learns what the good mail you receive looks like, and what kind of spam you get. Fortunately, training MailWasher Pro is swift and easy and, since it learns so fast, a satisfying experience.
