SpamSieve 1.2
SpamSieve 1.2 is now available.
Like your professional e-mail client, but jealous of Mail.app's spam
filter? SpamSieve brings powerful Bayesian spam filtering to other
popular e-mail clients. It learns what your spam looks like, so it can
block nearly all of it. It also learns what your good messages look
like, so it won't confuse them with spam. Other spam filters get worse
over time as spammers adapt to their rules; SpamSieve actually gets
better over time as you train it with more messages. SpamSieve doesn't
delete any messages--it only marks them in your e-mail client--so you'll
never lose any mail. SpamSieve works with any number of mail accounts,
of whatever types are supported by your e-mail software (e.g. POP,
IMAP, Hotmail).
Requirements: Mac OS X 10.1 or later
Supports: Emailer, Eudora 5.2, Entourage, Mailsmith, PowerMail
Price: $20 (shareware); free upgrade from 1.0 and 1.1

Flatten OSX Headers, a tool for REALbasic developers
I would like to announce something specific to developers who are for one
reason or another bound to deliver CFM applications, code resources and/or
plugins for the MacOS X platform.
Nowedays the CarbonLib 1.6 is the last library to which one can link too in
a CFM based environment, and any new features in OSX won't make it in
carbonlib anymore.
Developers know how to weak link to the systemFramework of MacOSX, while the
header files in the various frameworks provide the prototypes of the
functions available. CodeWarrior does not provide precompiled headers for
CFM-based targets, only MACHO-based targets on OSX.
The tool provided here is a little application that could have been
implemented by MetroWerks. It provides a flattened version of the many
framework header files, and does some other interesting things.
The flattened headers can be used in CW 4, 5, 6,7, 8, and be precompiled.
The advantage then is that one can access any function, use any type,

TRINFINITY SOFTWARE RELEASES ASCII TOOLS PRO 1.0
For immediate release.
Trinfinity Software releases ASCII Tools Pro for Macintosh.
New York, N.Y. - - November 6, 2002 - - Trinfinity Software released ASCII
Tools Pro 1.0 today. ASCII Tools Pro is a development tool for Macintosh
developers. It allows developers to easily manipulate text faster, saving
time and money.
ASCII (Pronounced ASKEEEE) stands for American Standard Code for

numbers so that they can be stored in a computers memory. For example,
uppercase "A" would be stored as 65. Before ASCII, most computers had their
own codes for storing letters. This made it difficult to exchange data
between computers. For example, computer number one represents the letter A
as 42 and computer number two represents the letter Q as 42, then when a

Rumpus 3.0
Rumpus 3.0 Ships! The Best Mac FTP Server Gets Better
November 5, 2002. Maxum Development today announced the release of a major
update to Rumpus, the premier FTP server for the Mac OS and OS X. Rumpus
3.0 offers even better Mac OS X support, adds a host of new features, and
includes a brand new, Web-based file management system.
The most popular FTP clients, especially among casual users, are Web
browsers. Unfortunately, browsers almost universally feature limited,
poorly implemented FTP capablities. Rumpus 3.0 resolves this long-standing
problem with the Web File Manager (WFM), which provides classic FTP
capabilities (file upload and download, folder listings, and other basic
file management functions) using a standard HTTP interface. For FTP
administrators who need to support users working with Web browsers, the
Rumpus WFM provides a far easier and more reliable file management solution
with an elegant, customizable Web interface.

November 4, 2002 - MCF Software today announced the release of the
