it's legit. When you bring in mail, and over half of it is spam, it becomes
a real pain in the but. It's much nicer to have a program that only takes
one click of a button to dump 40 spam e-mails, than 40 clicks of a button !!

word or phrase. Another reason I use MailWasher -

Sounds like you are using Mailwasher exactly the way I do, Chris...The best
description I can think of is that it acts as a buffer that allows you the
choice
of what you download into your inbox and what you don't. If you don't want
to bounce mail back, that's a choice you can make yourself, and most
importantly, it actually saves me time over any other method I can think of
when it comes to handling unwanted e mail.
