Mailwasher is an e-mail filtering software for Windows systems that can detect and delete spam from a user's e-mail when it is on the mail server, before being downloaded to the user's computer.
Mailwasher was developed by the New Zealand based company Firetrust. It uses a combination of user defined filters, spam databases and Bayesian filtering. The filter works on a small portion of each email, and then allows unwanted emails to be directly deleted from the user's POP3 inbox, without downloading them to the e-mail client on the user's computer. This approach is intended to prevent the downloading of spam and other messages infected with malware.
