SpamDefy.com in the fight against spam emails

North Yorkshire-based web development company WPS Media has launched a new, super-intelligent, anti-spam solution: SpamDefy.com

What separates SpamDefy.com from other filters is its flexibility and effectiveness, combined with minimum hassle.

Aimed at both business users and the general public alike, SpamDefy.com is a server-based solution that removes spam and harmful viruses from email messages before delivering them to the user's email in-box.

Users can sign up, just leave the default settings and SpamDefy is immediately a great solution. However, if you wish to make it even better you may 'train' your personal spam filter to recognise the type of spam messages you receive - making it up to 99.9% effective.

The system works by automatically collecting mail from the user's existing mail server, then processing the messages with SpamDefy.com's intelligence engine. When using this 'Intelligent Mode', messages are filtered and stored for future re-classification and only the messages deemed to be non-spam are delivered to the user.

The system is flexible, so users may alternatively choose SpamDefy.com's 'Authorisation Only' mode, whereby any message sent from an unknown sender is held in a queue, awaiting verification from the sender. In either mode, users may upload their email address book which then forces all email from those addresses to be delivered unhindered.

SpamDefy.com has been 12 months in the making and started out as a solution to help its developers deal with the many thousands of spam emails received on a daily basis on behalf of web clients.

Managing director, Darron Hartas, considers SpamDefy.com the most effective solution in the fight against the ever prolific spam war faced by millions on a daily basis: "Spam is a big problem for many email users; for businesses it causes many man-hours of wasted time and loss of productivity and for the personal user it causes much frustration. When searching for an effective anti-spam solution for our own company we found that most existing systems lacked the intelligence and flexibility that we required, so our development team set to work to create a 'super' spam filter based on existing Bayesian technology - but we have gone much, much further than that with SpamDefy.com."
