Upgrade Promotion Deals

Posted by Deborah on February 28, 2008

Standard Edition users should look seriously at the following promotions that Frontrange is offering.  As you probably know, as of April 30th there will be no more support, updates or sales of GoldMine Standard (dbase) Edition.  I think these are great prices for what you get and doubt there will be another deal as low as this:

*All Offers expire 4/30/08

Spam Filter for GoldMine

Posted by Deborah on February 21, 2008

I have recently been inundated with Spam email messages and find it hard to sort through to find the good email from my clients and prospects.

I tried a spam filter in GoldMine that is doing quite well.  It is called K9.  Once installed and configured, the emails are routed through K9 first and if it believes the email is Spam it will file it into a Junk Mail folder in your Email Center. 

This way you can see your good messages in your Inbox and check the Junk Mail every so often if you missed an email.  There are always going to be a few that slip through to the Inbox but I mark it as Spam so K9 remembers and move on.

From the K9 website

K9 is an email filtering application that works in conjunction with your regular POP3 email program and automatically classifies incoming emails as spam (junk email) or non-spam without the need for maintaining dozens of rules or constant updates to be downloaded. It uses intelligent statistical analysis that can result in extremely high accuracy over time.

K9 learns from its mistakes and becomes better and better at being able to identify spam. More importantly it learns to recognize what you consider to be spam.

K9 is for standard POP3 email accounts only. It does not directly support Hotmail, AOL or any other kind of webmail type systems, nor does it support SSL or secure authentication as used by MSN.
